Fuel That Fills You Up- Egg Crepes with Honeyed Cottage Cheese, Almonds & Cinnamon

Not all breakfasts (or late lunches) are built the same. Some just take up space—others set you up. This recipe? It’s the kind of meal that stays with you in the best way: deeply satisfying, subtly sweet, packed with protein, and made with whole ingredients that actually work with your body, not against it.

These delicate egg crepes are a blank canvas—simple, elegant, and endlessly versatile. Filled with a creamy blend of cottage cheese, cinnamon, almonds, and BeeNZ Kānuka or Mānuka UMF5+ honey, they strike that perfect balance between cozy and energizing.

Whether you’re powering through a busy morning, coming off a workout, or need something nourishing for a mid-afternoon reset, this dish brings what you need: flavor, fuel, and a little bit of beauty.

Why This Recipe Works Hard (So You Don’t Have To)

  • Eggs provide high-quality protein and essential fats that support energy, focus, and satiety.

  • Cottage cheese is rich in casein, a slow-digesting protein that keeps you full for hours.

  • Almonds offer healthy fats, fiber, and magnesium for sustained energy and blood sugar balance.

  • BeeNZ Kānuka or Mānuka honey adds more than sweetness—it supports immunity and digestion while delivering subtle floral or earthy complexity.

  • Cinnamon supports stable blood sugar and adds cozy warmth.

It’s a recipe that feels indulgent, but functions like a quiet powerhouse

Ingredients

For the crepes:

  • 3 eggs

  • 1 tablespoon water

  • Pinch of salt

  • Butter or oil for the pan

For the filling:

  • 1 cup cottage cheese

  • 1 cup almonds, chopped or lightly crushed

  • 1–2 tablespoons BeeNZ Kānuka or Mānuka UMF5+ honey

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • Pinch of salt

To serve:

  • Extra honey for drizzling

  • Fresh berries. Rasberries are great for a boost of fiber. 

  • Additional cinnamon for dusting

 

Real Food. Real Energy. Real Satisfaction.

These crepes are for the moments when you need more than a snack but less than a full sit-down situation. They’re elegant enough to serve at brunch, but easy enough to make on a weekday. They’re portable, protein-rich, and filled with the kind of ingredients that don’t leave you crashing an hour later.

So go ahead—whisk, fill, roll, and drizzle. And let this be the meal that meets you where you are, then carries you into what’s next.
