We love blintzes with their thin crepe outside and warm sweet filling. They make the most divine breakfast. Helaine uses a European-style cheese that has a fine curd. It mixes well with the cinnamon sugar and holds up to frying. Once the blintzes are fried, they have a warm toasted buttery flavor with a lightly sweet filling. You...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 eggs
1 c water or milk
1 c all-purpose flour
dash(es) salt
2 tsp sugar (optional)
FILLINGS (MAY BE DOUBLED)
8 oz dry farmers cheese (not the hard type). Breakstone makes it.
1 egg (yolk only)
sugar, to taste
cinnamon, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Beat egg with salt and liquid (water or milk) until smooth.
  • 2. Add flour gradually until the consistency of heavy cream. You do not need a mixer. A whisk will work as well.
  • 3. Add more liquid or flour as necessary. The batter will thicken as it sits.
  • 4. Spoon 1/3 cup of batter into a greased, preheated crepe or crepe size fry pan.
  • 5. Tilt pan until entire bottom is covered with a thin, even layer.
  • 6. When the blintz is browned underneath and dry on top (1 to 4 minutes), turn out onto waxed paper (browned side up).
  • 7. Cover with waxed paper and continue to stack blintzes and paper until all of the batter's used.
  • 8. Mix filling ingredients.
  • 9. Spoon some of the mixture into each blintz.
  • 10. Roll up once.
  • 11. Fold in ends.
  • 12. Continue rolling into a cigar shape (like a Chinese egg roll shape). Chill until ready to cook.
  • 13. To cook, heat a large skillet to medium-low and melt 2 teaspoons butter.
  • 14. Fry blintzes, turning occasionally.
  • 15. Add more butter as necessary.
  • 16. Serve with warm applesauce, sour cream (as is the tradition). Can easily increase quantities if you are cooking for a crowd.

I've made blintzes before, but these were by far the best. The crepes were so thin and delicate, and the filling was delicious. I will definitely be making these again.
