Time 1h15m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
¼ cup cold water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups ricotta cheese, strained if wet
½ cup cream cheese
1 lemon, zested
1 large egg
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon butter, or as needed
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or as needed for dusting

Steps:

  • Place 3 eggs, flour, milk, water, vegetable oil, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract in a blender. Blend until completely smooth, 1 or 2 minutes, scraping down sides as needed. Let batter sit at room temperature 30 minutes.
  • Whisk together ricotta cheese, cream cheese, lemon zest, egg, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix together thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Heat a 10-inch, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray or brush lightly with vegetable oil. Pour in about 1/4 cup batter. Immediately swirl batter around to coat bottom of pan. Cook until surface looks dry, about 1 minute. Flip crepe over to briefly cook other side, about 30 seconds. Remove to a plate. Repeat with the rest of batter. Stack crepes.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly butter a baking dish.
  • Spoon 3 to 4 tablespoons of filling onto the crepe, about an inch from edge nearest you. Fold edge over filling and flatten slightly. Fold in both sides, then roll up crepe into a small filled rectangle, ending with the seam on the bottom, creating a blintz.
  • Melt butter in skillet over medium heat. Cook the blintzes until golden brown on both sides, turning gently, about 2 minutes. Transfer to buttered baking dish.

MARYLYN'S CHEESE BLINTZES



Marylyn's Cheese Blintzes image

These blintzes are smooth and creamy and freeze well. May be served with sour cream.

Provided by Ann Davis

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Crepes

Time 1h35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup water
¾ cup milk
3 eggs
5 tablespoons melted butter
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 (16 ounce) package cottage cheese
1 (8 ounce) package farmers cheese
¼ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons butter, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place the water, milk, eggs, melted butter, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and flour in the container of a blender, and blend until the mixture forms a smooth batter, about 1 minute. Pour into a bowl, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  • Clean the blender container, then add the cottage cheese, farmers cheese, sour cream, sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 pinch of salt. Pulse the filling mixture a few times to combine, then blend until the filling is smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon of butter in an 8-inch skillet over medium heat until the foam disappears from the skillet. Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter into the heated skillet, and swirl the pan to coat the bottom completely. Cook until the crepe is opaque and set, 1 to 2 minutes, and set aside, uncooked side down, on a plate lined with wax paper. Repeat with the rest of the batter, buttering the pan every few crepes if needed.
  • To fill, place a crepe in front of you on a work surface with the cooked side up, and place about 1 1/2 tablespoons of cheese filling about 1 1/2 inches from the top of the crepe. Fold the top edge of the crepe over the filling, and fold the two sides inward to completely enclose the cheese. Roll the crepe over to seal the filling in, making a compact filled roll.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon of butter, or as needed, in a skillet over medium-low heat. Pan fry the blintzes on both sides until the filling is hot and brown spots appear on the crepe, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

CHEESE BLINTZES



Cheese Blintzes image

Provided by Elaine Louie

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield About 10 blintzes

Number Of Ingredients 13

16 ounces farmer cheese
1 large egg
1/4 cup sugar
1/8 cup matzo meal or fine dry unseasoned bread crumbs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup whole milk
8 large eggs
3/4 cup durum (semolina) flour
2 tablespoons cake flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
2 to 3 tablespoons butter, or as needed
Sour cream, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine farmer cheese, egg, sugar, matzo meal or bread crumbs and vanilla. Using a fork, mix well; set aside.
  • For the batter: In a large bowl, combine milk, eggs, durum flour, cake flour, vegetable oil and 1/4 cup cold water. Whisk until batter is smooth.
  • Place a 9-inch well-seasoned crepe pan or heavy skillet over medium-low heat. When pan is well heated, film it lightly with nonstick cooking spray. Allow pan to heat again for a few moments, then ladle 1/2 cup batter into skillet and tilt in all directions to spread batter thinly and evenly. Cook until underside is pale yellow-white and edges lift easily from bottom of pan, about 3 minutes. Adjust heat as needed if crepe is cooking too quickly or slowly.
  • Use a spatula to flip crepe, then cook other side for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. (The first crepe often tears or folds; there will still be enough batter for 10 crepes.) Transfer crepe to a plate, and repeat with remaining batter to make 10 crepes.
  • Place a crepe on a work surface and spread 3 to 4 tablespoons filling on one side. Starting from filled side, roll blintz and stack on a serving plate or in a container seam side down. At this point blintzes may be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
  • To serve, place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium heat. Melt a tablespoon butter and add as many blintzes as possible without crowding pan. Cook until golden brown on bottoms and filling is heated through, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook other sides until golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm; repeat with remaining crepes and filling. Serve immediately, seam side down, garnished with sour cream, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your blintzes.
  • Make sure your cheese is cold before you grate it. This will help it to melt evenly in the blintzes.
  • Don't overfill your blintzes. This will make them difficult to fold and cook evenly.
  • Cook your blintzes over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve your blintzes immediately with your favorite toppings. This will ensure that they are at their best.

Conclusion:

Beauty's Cheese Blintzes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect blintzes that will impress your family and friends.
