Begin by preparing the sugar-free nutella. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet. Toast for 10 minutes, then remove and let them cool slightly.
Place the toasted hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and rub them to remove as much skin as possible. This helps achieve a smoother spread.
Add the skinned hazelnuts to a food processor and blend until they turn into a smooth butter, about 5-8 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed.
Once you have hazelnut butter, add in unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol sweetener, 3 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust sweetness to your preference.
For the crepes, whisk together whole wheat flour, 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, coconut oil, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl, until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with a little coconut oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the crepe batter into the skillet, swirling quickly to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for about 2 minutes or until edges start to crisp and bottom is golden brown.
Use a spatula to carefully flip the crepe and cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining batter.
Spread a generous amount of the homemade sugar-free nutella onto each crepe, fold, and serve warm.
