BLINTZ BAKED FRENCH TOAST
The perfect make-ahead brunch, this casserole has the flavors of a blintz in French toast form. Instead of the more traditional cottage cheese, creamy ricotta goes into the custard poured on top of the challah, and everything is baked until crisp on the outside and pillowy on the inside. This recipe comes from Molly Yeh, the host of the cooking show Girl Meets Farm.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch cake pan or baking dish.
- For the batter, place all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade and blend until smooth. (You can also use a blender.) Pour half the batter (about 1 3/4 cups) into the prepared dish and bake for 10 minutes, until set.
- Meanwhile, for the filling, whisk together the ricotta, mascarpone, eggs, and sugar in a large bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla, and salt and mix until thoroughly combined. Spread the cheese filling over the baked pancake. Carefully spoon the remaining pancake batter to cover the cheese.
- Return the pan to the oven and continue baking for 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and the filling is almost set. Remove from the oven and allow to stand 10 to 15 minutes. Cut the blintzes in squares and serve warm with the Fresh Blueberry Sauce.
- Combine the orange juice, sugar, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. When the mixture is translucent and thickened, stir in the blueberries and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, just until a few berries have burst but most are still whole. Stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice and cool.
BLINTZES
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.

PERFECT BLINTZ BATTER
This makes the most wonderful blintz! If you make these in an 8-inch skillet you should get 9-10 blintzes, make lots and freeze them. The batter needs to sit for about 30 minutes before using. If you are filling these with a sweet filling then increase the sugar and vanilla slightly. Try to warm your cream or milk up in the microwave slightly just until about room temperature before adding to the batter.

BLINTZ CASSEROLE
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.

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.
MAKE-AHEAD BLINTZED BREAKFAST BAKE

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt into a homogeneous milky mix. Put half the bread in a 10-inch round or 8 x 12-inch rectangular baking dish and pour half the egg mixture over top. If you partially froze your cream cheese it will crumble easily, so crumble half the cream cheese on top of the bread mixture then top that with half the Sweet Potential. Finish with the remaining bread, egg mixture, cream cheese, and Sweet Potential. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight, or up to 48 hours.
- The following morning, preheat your oven to 350°F. Combine the sugar and nutmeg and sprinkle it over top of the bread. Refasten the foil, slide the whole thing onto the middle rack of your oven, and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 20 minutes, until crisp and browned. Serve warm.
Tips:
- To make the blintz batter, you can use a blender or a whisk. If using a blender, be sure to blend the ingredients until smooth. If using a whisk, be sure to whisk the ingredients until well combined.
- When cooking the blintzes, be sure to use a non-stick skillet or griddle. This will help to prevent the blintzes from sticking.
- Cook the blintzes over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
- When filling the blintzes, be sure to not overfill them. This will help to prevent the blintzes from breaking.
- To make the cinnamon sugar topping, you can use either granulated sugar or brown sugar. If using brown sugar, be sure to pack it down firmly into the measuring cup.
- To assemble the overnight blintz bake, be sure to layer the blintzes and the cinnamon sugar topping evenly. This will help to ensure that each bite is flavorful.
- Bake the overnight blintz bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the blintzes are heated through and the topping is golden brown.
Conclusion:
The overnight blintz bake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It is perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With its creamy cheese filling, sweet cinnamon sugar topping, and flaky blintz wrappers, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
