Is it too early for pumpkin?   I vote not if its these quick and easy Nutella Pumpkin Crepes that only require a couple minutes standing in front of your stove and taste incredible!!

I love Pumpkin everything from Pumpkin Cookie to Pumpkin Dip to Pumpkin Cheesecake and even Pumpkin Angel Food Cake French Toast.  So I thought it was time to add another pumpkin breakfast dessert to the menu.  Because Fall days are always better when started with pumpkin…and Nutella. 

These Fall pumpkin crepes were ironically inspired by our family summer vacation.  We have a tradition to take an annual family vacation – my parents, siblings, spouses, nieces and nephews.  After Patrick and I made an impromptu trip to Cancun last year to celebrate the end of my pneumonia/pic line removal (pic HERE), we convinced everyone that Cancun was the destination for our vacation this year.  It was a fantastic decision.

My first obsession with Cancun is the warm, clear water.  So warm you don’t even have to think, “do I want to get wet right now?”  because the answer is always YES!  Yes, you always want to be immersed in the water!  (pic HERE)   My second obsession with Cancun is not the street tacos – although delicious – but the Nutella Crepes!  There was a cafe near our hotel that served a wide variety of crepes and although I usually prefer the savory, I found myself repeatedly drawn to the siren calls of the Nutella crepe.  It being vacation ad all, I repeatedly gave in.

I don’t know if they were so extra amazing because while I have enjoyed Nutella before, I’ve never actually bought it myself or if its the way the warm, thin crepe cradles the oozing, silky chocolate.

I think its the latter.

But these aren’t just Nutella Crepes but Pumpkin Nutella Crepes!  I loooove pumpkin and chocolate together.  My mom’s chocolate chip pumpkin bread is one of my favorite pumpkin recipes to date, so I knew pumpkin crepes would be beyond amazing with Nutella.  And I was right.  Since I’ve posted these Nutella Crepes, they have been such I hit, I created Pumpkin Bars with Nutella Cream Cheese Frosting – you don’t want to miss them!

How to Make Pumpkin Crepes

The pumpkin batter spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger mixed with pumpkin puree and your traditional crepe ingredients of flour eggs, milk and butter are so super easy and so delicious they should be eaten year round.  Seriously, SO much better than just plain crepes.

You can forgo the Nutella if you wish (thus the parentheticals) and devour them with butter, syrup, powdered sugar, cream cheese, berries etc.  – so good – or sandwich them with Nutella – ssssoooooooo good.

Nutella Pumpkin Crepes and I welcome you to Fall!  Its going to be an addictingly delicious one!
