Cheese Blintzes

Cheese Blintzes are our long-time family favorite dish. We can eat these delicious blintzes for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Even though I make them all the time, we only now took a picture of this dish. Enjoy!

Ingredients:


1 cup all purpose flour
3 large eggs
1 1/3 cups milk
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
Nonstick vegetable oil spray

1 cup ricotta cheese
1/4 cup plain yougurt
2-3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoons vanilla

Directions:

Mix first 6 ingredients using electric mixer until smooth.

Spray nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray and heat over medium-high heat.

Pour 2/3 of the scoop of batter into pan and turn the pan gently to spread the batter around the whole pan. Cook until edge of crêpe turns light brown, about 1 minute. Loosen edges gently with spatula and turn crêpe over. Cook until bottom begins to brown in spots, about 30 seconds. Transfer to plate and cover with foil. Repeat with remaining batter, spraying pan with oil spray as needed and keeping the crêpes warm.

Mix ricotta cheese, yogurt, sugar, and vanilla.

Place 1 crepe browned side up on work surface. Spread filling on one side of the crepe. Roll crepe up and cut in half. Repeat with remaining filling and crepes.

Before serving, brown on buttered skillet for 1 minute on each side.

Our favorite toppings for the blintzes include maple syrup, cherry preserves, sour cream, or chocolate sauce.
