Hello everyone! I hope you all had a nice weekend, and you’re ready to tackle a new week. And if you’re feeling a little blue, I believe these scrumptious crêpes would fix this. Just look at them – don’t you already feel better?
I’m feeling a little bit off today. It’s not about Monday, though. Our weather has quite significantly changed few times over the last few days, and this often affects me. Besides, we’re expecting a post-tropical storm which is bringing some rain and gloomy weather, and that’s another factor. So, I definitely need these crêpes (or any
other), too!
I’ve always loved some good crêpes, and there’s quite a few delicious ideas on my blog. But this summer? You probably noticed I’ve been sharing MANY ideas. In fact, there’s still something awesome in my sleeve awaiting its time here :)

Blueberry Cheesecake Crêpes
Let’s talk about these Blueberry Cheesecake Crêpes for a minute. I opted this name mostly because it sounds appealing. Of course, you should not really expect a blueberry cheesecake here. However, the addition of cream cheese topping does really add those decadent creamy notes just like any cheesecake.
In fact, originally I was going to make only the blueberry toping, but when cooking the idea of second topping came to my mind. I think this really works well together. Luscious, sweet yet fresh blueberry topping and rich and smooth, with a hint of saltiness, cream cheese topping… It’s like… a no-bake blueberry cheesecake, after all! :)
And yes, don’t worry about fresh blueberries. Frozen berries are perfectly fine here, you will need to cook them anyways. So keep fresh blueberries for a different project.
I hope you like these Blueberry Cheesecake Crêpes, and you will give them a try soon. If you make it, let me know in this post or send me an Instagram message or share you photos adding the hashtag #havocinthekitchen.
Cheers!

minutesThese Blueberry Cheesecake Crêpes combine a luscious and fresh blueberry sauce and a rich cream cheese sauce. It’s like… a no-bake blueberry cheesecake served with your crêpes! This amount of the blueberry sauce and cream cheese should be enough for 8-10 crepes. the cooking time does not include time for making crepes, that would add an extra hour.
Ingredients
- Blueberry Sauce:
3 tbsp. butter
2-3 tbsp. honey or maple syrup
about 3 cups frozen blueberries
juice and zest of 1 or 2 limes (or lemon)
2-3 tbsp. liquid pectin, optional – see notes
- Cream Cheese Topping:
2/3 cup cream cheese
2/3 cup of 18% cream
- Serving:
Crepes, this or your favourite recipe. The sauce should be enough for about 8-10 crepes.
Mint, few fresh blueberries, for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Blueberry Sauce:
- In a pan combine the butter and honey (maple) over high-medium heat and cook for about 2 minutes, to thicken up.
- Add the frozen blueberries, lime juice and zest. Bring to a soft boil then simmer for about 5-7 minutes. Try and add more lime or lemon juice or honey (maple), if necessary. Turn the heat off.
- Optionally, add some pectin or starch to thicken it up – see notes
- Cream Cheese Topping:
- In a small saucepan combine the cream and cream cheese over low-medium heat. Cook, stirring often with a whisk, for about 3 minutes, until fully incorporated. Off heat and let completely cool.
- Serving:
- Serve the crepes with the cooled blueberry sauce and cream cheese topping. Of course you will adjust this to your preferences, but I would recommend 2-3 tablespoons of the blueberry sauce and 1 tablespoon of cream cheese per a crepe.
Enjoy!
Notes
- The addition of pectin is optional, but it adds the jam-like consistency. You can definitely skip it, but the consistency will be runnier. As pectin characteristics vary (For instance, I used liquid which is normally less potent that crystalized), please consult with the information from your pectin’s manufacturer and adjust it accordingly (the recommended amount to “softly” set 3 cups of berries or slightly less. If the filling turns out too thick after setting, just add a little of water and simmer for a few minutes to thin it up. Alternatively, you can use some starch in place of pectin. Just take 1-2 teaspoons of starch and combine with a little of cold water until smooth and then stir in the prepared blueberry sauce.

Crepes make everything better – even gloomy, post-tropical rainstorms! This version with the cream cheese and blueberry sauce looks absolutely amazing, Ben. There would be no gloom in the house if these were on the table!!

This looks incredibly good, Ben. And btw we’ve been having a lot of rain and gloom lately, too. I rather like an occasional rainy day, but a week of rainy/cloudy days really does put a damper on my mood and energy!
You have given me a reason to try and make liquid pectin. Hope today is a better day.
Gosh, this looks out of this world amazing! The flavour, colour and styling are just sensational, Ben.
