Crepes Make Great Recipes for Kids Meals

Seeking easy recipes for kids? Think crepes for creative kids recipes. They're delicious and economical. And making them together is a great way to spend your precious family time. 




Kids can be notoriously picky eaters. But I haven't met a child yet who doesn't LOVE crepes!

Basic crepes are mild by definition, which makes them very appealing to sensitive young taste buds.

Although a child under 12 shouldn't operate a stove unsupervised, someone as young as a 3-year old can easily help you fill and roll your crepes with ingredients such as peanut butter and jelly or even pimento cheese.

Older children, under the supervision of adults, can actively participate and learn how to make crepes. They can also help you serve other family members, even creating "made-to-order" crepes for everyone! 

Tip: For very young children, consider making 6-inch crepes, which make a perfect serving for smaller appetites. 


grilled cheese in a crepe

Grilled Cheese Crepes is another one of our easy recipes for kids.

In this recipe, we added 2 squares of cheese to a crepe, folded it in half, and grilled it in a skillet.

What kid (or adult) could resist dunking this crepe into a bowl of tomato soup? If you like this idea, check out our Easy Macaroni and Cheese Crepes. 


scrambled eggs, bacon and cheese in crepes

Scrambled Eggs, Bacon and Cheese Crepes make a great breakfast or dinner recipe for kids.

In this recipe, we layered cheese, scrambled eggs and bacon in a crepe and grilled it until the cheese melted.

Instead of the bacon, consider sneaking in some vegetables such as broccoli florets and tomatoes.
