By The Kitchenette Bite | Easy Breakfast Recipes | Nutella Recipe Ideas

Some breakfasts are just food. And some breakfasts feel like a little celebration. These Nutella Crepe Rolls fall completely in the second category. Thin delicate crepes rolled tightly around a thick generous filling of Nutella, drizzled with extra warm Nutella on top, and dusted with powdered sugar. They take 15 minutes, they look beautiful on any plate, and they taste like something you would order at a Parisian cafe. The secret is a simple rested batter that produces the thinnest most tender crepes every single time.

Ingredients List

For the Crepe Batter (makes 8 to 10 crepes):

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature

  • 1 and 1/4 cups whole milk, room temperature

  • 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter plus extra for the pan

  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Pinch of salt

For the Filling and Topping:

  • 1 cup Nutella, warmed slightly until spreadable

  • Powdered sugar for dusting

  • Extra warm Nutella for drizzling on top

  • Optional: sliced strawberries, banana slices, or caramel sauce

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: Make and Rest the Batter

  • Add flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt to a blender

  • Blend for 30 seconds until completely smooth with no lumps

  • Pour into a bowl, cover, and rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes

  • Resting relaxes the gluten and lets bubbles settle for ultra thin crepes

  • You can rest the batter overnight for even better results the next morning

Step 2: Cook the Crepes

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and brush lightly with butter

  • Pour a small ladleful of batter into the pan and immediately tilt the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter into a thin even circle

  • Cook for 60 to 90 seconds until the edges look dry and the surface is set

  • Flip with a thin spatula and cook the other side for just 30 seconds

  • Stack cooked crepes on a plate as you go — they will not stick to each other

Step 3: Fill and Roll

  • Lay one crepe flat on a clean surface

  • Spread a generous tablespoon of warmed Nutella across the entire lower half of the crepe all the way to the edges

  • Fold the bottom edge up over the Nutella then roll the crepe tightly upward into a cylinder

  • Place seam side down on the serving plate

  • Repeat for all crepes and place three rolls side by side on each plate

Step 4: Finish and Serve

  • Warm extra Nutella in the microwave for 20 seconds until pourable

  • Drizzle the warm Nutella generously over the top of the rolled crepes

  • Dust powdered sugar over everything using a fine mesh sieve

  • Serve immediately while the Nutella is still warm and glossy

  • Add sliced strawberries or banana on the side if desired

Top Nutella Crepe Roll Questions — Answered!

Question 1: “Why do my crepes always tear when I try to flip them?”

Crepes tear when they are flipped too early or when the pan is not hot enough. Wait until the entire surface looks dry and the edges lift slightly from the pan before flipping. A thin flexible spatula and confidence in one quick flip motion prevents most tears.

Question 2: “Can I make crepes ahead of time and store them?”

Yes! Stack cooled crepes with a small piece of parchment between each one and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat each crepe in the pan for 20 seconds before filling and rolling.

Question 3: “What can I use instead of Nutella in crepe rolls?”

Peanut butter and honey, Biscoff cookie butter, cream cheese with strawberry jam, or simple butter and sugar all work beautifully. Any spreadable filling that stays soft at room temperature is perfect for crepe rolls.

Pro Tips for Perfect Nutella Crepe Rolls

  • Always rest the batter — even 30 minutes makes a big difference in crepe texture

  • Warm the Nutella before spreading so it glides on without tearing the delicate crepe

  • Keep the pan temperature at medium — too hot creates holes and uneven browning

  • The first crepe is almost always a tester — it seasons the pan and rarely comes out perfect

  • Roll crepes while they are still slightly warm for the tightest most beautiful roll

Delicious Variations

Strawberry Nutella Crepe Rolls: Lay thin strawberry slices over the Nutella before rolling for a fresh fruity version that is perfect for Mother’s Day brunch.

Banana Nutella Crepe Rolls: Add sliced banana with the Nutella filling and drizzle caramel sauce over the finished rolls instead of extra Nutella.

Cream Cheese Crepe Rolls: Mix softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla and use as the filling instead of Nutella for a tangy sweet version.

Savory Crepe Rolls: Skip the sugar in the batter and fill with ham, cheese, and spinach for a savory crepe roll that is just as satisfying as the sweet version.
