My dad always requested this special dish for Father's Day; it was his favorite breakfast. You can switch up the fruit you use for the topping -warmed canned peaches are my personal favorite. -Angela Matz, West Allis, Wisconsin

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 large eggs
1 cup 2% milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt

2 medium peaches, sliced
1/2 cup halved fresh sweet cherries
1 tablespoon sugar

1-1/2 cups 2% cottage cheese, drained well
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons sugar

Let stand while preparing blintzes., Heat a lightly greased 6-in. nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir batter. Fill a 1/4-cup measure halfway with batter; pour into center of pan. Quickly lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. Cook until top appears dry; turn blintz over and cook 15-20 seconds longer or until bottom is cooked. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing pan as needed. Meanwhile, in a bowl, beat cottage, cheese, egg, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon until almost smooth. Spoon about 2 tablespoons filling onto each crepe. Fold opposite sides of crepe over filling, forming a rectangular bundle., On a greased griddle, cook blintzes 3 minutes, seam side down. Turn; cook until golden brown, 3-5 minutes longer. Top with fruit and, if desired, sour cream.

The fruit topping was the best part. The blintzes were a bit dry.

The blintzes were good, but the fruit topping was a bit runny. I think I'll try thickening it up with some cornstarch next time.

These blintzes were a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. I might try using less sugar next time.

I've made these blintzes twice now and they've been a hit both times. They're so easy to make and the fruit topping is delicious.

My family loved this recipe! The blintzes were light and fluffy, and the fruit topping was the perfect finishing touch. We will definitely be making these again.
