Pumpkin Pie Stuffed Crepes ~ #DaisyCottageCheese #DaisyDifference

Today’s recipe on Pumpkin Pie Stuffed Crepes is sponsored by Daisy Brand, but my love for their Daisy Cottage Cheese is all my own!

Pumpkin Pie Stuffed Crepes

Sunday mornings in my house are often leisurely and filled with a family favorite breakfast. Cory doesn’t eat breakfast most days (bad I know) and now that the boys have started school they either their breakfast there. Sunday mornings allow us to have some of our favorite breakfasts together as a family and seems to kick the last “break day” off on the right tone. Our family enjoys homemade pancakes and homemade crepes often as our Sunday morning breakfast but I see one problem with this as I’m working behind the scenes to make my family healthier…they can be loaded with empty calories that leave us all hungry before lunch time.

I have gotten in the habit of adding in Daisy Cottage Cheese when I can because it really packs a punch in the protein department. Every serving of Daisy Cottage Cheese packs in 13 g of protein which is helpful in serving fun Sunday morning breakfasts to the family and making them last. Not only can I trust that by adding Daisy Cottage Cheese to my meals that the family won’t walk away hungry but it’s a brand I can trust. It’s made with only 4 ingredients and yes I can pronounce every one of them!

I’m still on my pumpkin spice kick for fall (ok I admit that lasts all year long!) and I wanted to make some Pumpkin Pie Stuffed Crepes but I knew they weren’t truly going to last the family until lunch time. I made my usual crepe recipe and paired it with my Pumpkin Spice Dip. The difference was the Daisy difference this time in which I added the 2% 16 ounce container of Daisy Cottage Cheese to my filling. This gave the filling a twist on flavor and bumped up the protein level a ton, which took the family from having a treat for breakfast to actually filling up on something. Everyone in the family loved them and was asking for seconds. You could easily use the 24 ounce container and pack additional protein into this yummy breakfast treat. Along with purchasing my eggs from the neighbors, I also make homemade whip cream, homemade pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree so I really know what is going into my breakfast.

Pumpkin Pie Stuffed Crepes

Daisy Cottage Cheese has compiled more than enough cottage cheese recipes to fill your table!  Whether your looking to incorporate Daisy Cottage Cheese as a protein booster, lo-cal snack or a creamy side dish they have you covered!  

Cottage cheese truly is a versatile food and goes great with just about anything you can pair it with.  Growing up the neighboring mom used it in lasagna (of course) but would also eat it with just cottage cheese and diced radishes and celery in it.  My brother in law eats his constantly with just a package of tuna added into it (talk about protein!) and my cousin’s husband likes to mix his cottage cheese with just mayo (not sure I have words for this).  Daisy Cottage Cheese in either 2% or 4%, served plain or with some additions is truly a great snack or meal addition as it is low calorie (2% only has 90 calories per a serving) and packed with 1/4 of your daily protein recommendation.  

How do you enjoy your Daisy Cottage Cheese?

  • Oh my I your feature at the Bouquet of Talent party. I love crepes and plan to make them for Christmas morning breakfast with my family. I am definitely going to surprise everyone with these delicious sounding pumpkin filled ones. Thanks for the inspiration!

  • OMG! Can I come over for breakfast? I love everything Pumpkin. This is my favorite time of year. I have never attempted to make crepes as I am afraid the will be stuck to the pan. They have to be so thin. These look delicious!

      The secret is lots of butter Lisa to make sure they don’t stick. So worth the effort though and I promise they are not as intimidating as they seem.

      Cottage cheese really packs a punch of protein and is a great addition to so many foods. For the most part you don’t even realize it’s in there but your reaping good things from it.

  • These sound amazing! I love crepes, and I will definitely be trying these! Plus the pumpkin~YUM!

      Can’t wait to hear how it goes!

  • Patty

    Interesting. I tend to have crepes in my freezer to pop out for fun filling. I must admit to not being a fan of cottage cheese straight up but know how it can be delicious in different recipes.

    My favorite way to eat is is to drain it a bit and add a healthy amount of garlic and then process it until smooth and add a touch of salt and lemon. mmmmm

  • Jenn

    What an interesting recipe. I never would have thought to make something like this. Sounds really good. I love Daisy cottage cheese.

  • Cinny

    Crepes are one of my favorites. Pumpkin pie spiced crepes, I haven’t tried yet but it looks interesting.

  • Jenna Wood

    Yum- I don’t eat cottage cheese solo but I love it in recipes. I bet this can be adapted to several variations when we get out of the Fall season too.

  • Liz @ Yes/No Films

    Those sound delicious – I love crepes. I don’t think I’ve ever had pumpkin pie crepes, though.
