Ingredients You'll Need For These Egg Crepes
Here's what you'll need to make this easy egg crepe for toddlers and babies:
- egg – the star of the show! great source of protein, iron, choline, vitamin D, and helps everything bind together
- milk of choice – adds moisture and creates the perfect pourable consistency
- vanilla extract – adds a warm, naturally sweet flavor
- all-purpose flour or oat flour (optional) – gives light structure if you want a thicker, fluffier batter
See recipe card for quantities.
How To Make Your Easy Egg Crepe
- Preheat pan – heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil
- Mix batter – in a small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vanilla extract, and salt (if using) until smooth (if using flour, whisk it in until fully combined!
- Pour & swirl – pour the batter into the hot skillet and swirl the pan gently to spread the batter into a thin, even layer
- Cook the crepe – let cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges lift and the bottom is lightly golden
- Flip & finish – carefully flip the crepe and cook for another 30-60 seconds, until set
- Cool & enjoy – let cool slightly before serving, fill or top with your favorite toddler-friendly toppings and enjoy warm!
Hint For The Best Toddler Crepes
If you’d like a firmer or more “classic” crepe texture, whisk in 1-2 tablespoon of flour to give it a bit more structure while keeping it light and flexible! Making a more sturdy egg crepe for your toddler.
Substitutions
This egg crepe is already gluten-free (if not using flour or using gluten-free flour) and can easily be made dairy-free!
- dairy-free → use unsweetened non-dairy alternative
- egg-free → can try with an egg substitute, but personally I haven't tried any other way
Variations
Feel free to make this easy egg crepe your own based on you and your toddler's preference!
- cinnamon banana crepe – add a pinch of cinnamon and spread with mashed banana before rolling
- berry yogurt roll-up – fill with Greek yogurt and berries for a balanced, nutrient-dense snack
- strawberry egg crepe – add some crushed freeze dried strawberries into the batter
- savory crepe – skip the vanilla, add a pinch of garlic powder, and fill with cheese or sautéed veggies
- PB&J roll-up – spread with nut or seed butter and a thin layer of fruit jam or mashed berries, then roll up and slice into bite-sized pinwheels
- mini pizza crepe – skip the vanilla, and after cooking, spread with a little pizza sauce and shredded cheese. Pop it back in the pan for a minute to melt the cheese, a fun savory twist!
Equipment
You will need a mixing bowl or mason jar to whisk the ingredients in and a non-stick skillet (for easy flipping) to cook the egg crepe.
Storing Your Easy Egg Crepes
Honestly, this egg crepe is best served fresh. If making ahead, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days then either served cold or slightly warmed in the microwave. Not ideal to freeze if you're not using any flour, if using flour you can freeze for about 2 months.
Tiff's Dietitian Tip
Get creative with how you serve it! Roll the crepe tightly and slice into pinwheels for a fun, bite-sized option, or cut into thin strips for little hands to grab and dip. Changing the shape can make familiar foods feel brand new and new foods feel less scary for toddlers! PS - top with sprinkles for added fun 😉
FAQ
Yes! Use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. Whatever works best for your little one.
For sure! Add ½ teaspoon maple syrup or mashed banana for natural sweetness.
Absolutely! Just multiply the ingredients and cook them one at a time in the skillet.

My toddler will not touch an egg if it looks like an egg. But she LOVED these crepes! I added flour for the thicker crepe and put peanut butter on it - she crushed it 👏🏻👏🏻
toddlerdietitiantiff says
YUM! Yes, adding some flour for structure helps it hold together better too!
Sarah says
Such a simple recipe that my kids both loved. Easy to mix up and cook for a simple, nutrient dense breakfast (or snack). Love knowing that my kids are starting their day with a lot of protein naturally through their breakfast, without even knowing it.
This one is saved for fun weekday breakys in our house!

My 18 month old absolutely LOVES this recipe! It’s a great way to get in some eggs without it being the same old breakfast.
toddlerdietitiantiff says
So glad y'all love them!! I completely agree, they're such a nice change up!
Michelle says
All my toddler likes to eat for breakfast is oatmeal and scrambled eggs. I wanted to switch it up with this. I made these crepes for my toddler and 11 month old. I paired it with freeze dried blueberries and a banana and drizzled some honey on the toddlers. She ate half and came back later for more. I also was out of flour so I blended up some oats to make oat flour and it turned out great. I will definitely be remaking this one.
toddlerdietitiantiff says
Love the mix of the crepe + crunchy, freeze dried fruit! So glad y'all loved it and how fun that we have littles close in age!
Jordan says
Made these this morning for my 3 year old who is on an egg strike and she loved them! Rolled them with some PB, banana, hemp seeds, and drizzled some maple syrup on top. Huge hit! My husband and I loved them as well. Will definitely be adding to our weekly rotation!
toddlerdietitiantiff says
Woohooo!! Love when the whole family AND opinionated toddler approves! Breakfast WIN!
Natalie says
These are sooo simple and delicious! All three of my kids (8, 5, and 3) loved these, including the one averse to eggs! This will become a regular in our house because they are so quick to make. Our favorite combo so far was Nutella and banana, a tablespoon or less did the trick!
toddlerdietitiantiff says
YAY! So glad all your kids loved them! Nutella and banana sound AMAZING! Even Nutella and strawberries for Valentine's day sounds so good!
Helena says
My 6yo and 2yo loved it! And I loved that they each got an egg for breakfast, plus yogurt and fruit!
It was easier than I thought - I was worried it serious be difficult to flip, or would stick to the pan. I had absolutely zero issues and it was so easy and quick it could easily become a breakfast staple.
toddlerdietitiantiff says
Woohooo!!! Love a balanced breakfast win! Also, so glad to hear it was easier than you thought!!! Def sticks if you use a stainless steel pan, or at least for me it was a disaster LOL but with a nice non-stick it's super easy!
Michaela Shelton says
Such an easy recipe and my toddler keeps asking for them!

Chandler says
We make this multiple times a week! The kids and I love it!
