Easy Crepes stuffed with Jam or Fruit Preserves. I provide the recipe for how to make crepes from scratch. The easiest way to fill the crepes is to just use berry or fruit jam.
Crepes filled with jam or fruit preserves used to be my number one childhood breakfast favorite! Growing up, I used to really look forward to weekends when my mom would start making crepes for me and my sister which we then would fill with different kinds of berry jams and fruit preserves. Cherry, peach, raspberry, blackberry, black currant, and strawberry jam fillings were my favorite!
I am not a big fan of toasting a slice of bread and then spreading a jam over it, but I do like jam-filled crepes! So, if you asked me what was my favorite way to eat strawberry or raspberry jam, it would definitely have to be as a crepe filling.
Make crepes from scratch using my recipe for homemade crepes. If you are gluten free - make my gluten free crepes.
I like these jam stuffed crepes even better than Nutella-filled crepes. Fruity crepe fillings are so much better and lighter than chocolate ones! Try it for yourself and you'll see!

I love how the jam is oozing through the crepes! Looks so yummy!!
These crepes look delicious! I love how you can see the jam coming through the holes - so pretty!
Thanks, I love those little holes too - makes crepes so pretty!
This is my go to dessert when sweet cravings hit! So simple but sooooo good! I actually made some last week after trying to ignore my cravings but it was no good. I had to get up and crank out crepes, though what I make are usually English pancakes, similar but a bit thicker. I love the photos with the jam seeping out, gorgeous!
Beautiful crepes, Julia! I love all that ooze. So inviting! 🙂 Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend!

You are the crepe master! I am trying to shield my screen from my Husband because, after our honeymoon in Paris, there isn't a crepe he doesn't want to try! My grandmother gave me a crepe pan but I am still scared!
Lindsey, you are so sweet! I bet there was such a variety of crepes and crepe fillings in Paris - you couldn't try them all even if you wanted. Oh, Paris would be a paradise for a crepe lover like me! 🙂
