Yield Makes about 8 servings as a main course, more as a side dish or buffet dish

Number Of Ingredients 20

Batter:
4 large eggs (no substitutes)
1 1/4 cups milk
2 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 cup butter, melted (for best flavor, no substitutes)
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 to 2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
Filling (see notes):
2 (7 1/2- to 8-ounce) packages curd-style farmer cheese
1 (15- to 16-ounce) container ricotta cheese, any type
2 large eggs or 1/2 cup egg substitute
2 to 3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
To serve:
sour cream
plain or vanilla yogurt
applesauce
sliced fresh strawberries or other fruit

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9 by 13-inch baking dish or coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a blender or a food processor (fitted with a steel blade), combine all batter ingredients. Process until very smooth, scraping down the sides of the container once or twice. Measure out 1 1/2 cups of the batter, and pour it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees forabout 10 minutes, or until it is set.
  • Meanwhile, combine all the filling ingredients in a large bowl, and mix them well. When the bottom layer has set, remove it from the oven and spread the filling over it, smoothing the top. Give the remaining batter a brief stir to resuspend the ingredients; then very slowly pour it over the cheese filling so the filling is completely covered. Carefully return the casserole to the 350 degree oven, and bake an additional 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is puffed and set.
  • Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes before cutting it into squares. Serve with your choice of accompaniments.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup whole milk
4 large eggs lightly beaten
1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • With a whisk, beat eggs and milk together and add the salt. Gradually, a tablespoonful at a time, whisk in flour and beat until smooth. Heat a 6inch skillet and butter it lightly. Pour in enough batter to make a thin pancake. (If batter is too thick, add water to thin) Pour out excess back into the batter and don't worry if a "tab" forms on the side of the pan.
  • Cook the blintz on one side only until the top blisters and it looks dry around the edges. Turn the blintz upside down onto a clean towel. Rebutter the skillet if need be, every 2 or 3 blintzes, and proceed until all the batter has been used up.
  • Make assorted fillings, roll up and fry, or bake or freeze for another day.

BLINTZ CASSEROLE



Blintz Casserole image

I came across this recipe from Beach Hut Bed & Breakfast Inn and posted it here so I could locate it next weekend. Thought it sounded good, not too sweet, and seems easy to put together for overnight guests. I don't know how many people this recipe would serve, but I would double it for 4 guests, thinking three blintzes per person. I will post a review next week. I did try this recipe and I thought it was very, very bland. Perhaps others will think differently.

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 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.
  • Bake in preheated oven to firm up the filling, about 12 minutes. Cool blintzes 10 minutes before serving. Dust lightly with confectioners' sugar.
