Easy Cheese Blintz Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a cookie sheet generously with non-stick cooking spray.
• Trim crusts from bread and roll the slices flat.
• In a small bowl combine sugar and cinnamon to make a mixture.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix softened cream cheese, milk and vanilla until smooth. Spread this mixture onto each slice of flattened bread. Roll each bread slice up. Dip bread/cream cheese rolls in melted butter, roll the blintzes immediately in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Cut rolls into 1 inch pieces. Arrange the blintzes on the prepared cookie sheet.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• Beat eggs in a bowl. Add milk, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Beat in flour using an electric mixer until well blended. Let batter stand for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Mix the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, cottage cheese, sugar, sour cream, egg yolk, and cinnamon together in a bowl to make the filling.
• Melt butter in a 6- to 7-inch skillet. Spoon a portion of the batter onto the skillet; cook until lightly browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Turn out onto a tea towel. Repeat with the remaining batter, thinning with small amounts of water if necessary and greasing the pan after every 2 to 3 blintzes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Melt the remaining butter in the skillet over low heat, about 1 minute.
• Place a blintz on a clean work surface with the uncooked side up. Add 1 tablespoon filling and roll up, completely covering the filling. Place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining blintzes. Brush filled blintzes with melted butter.
• Bake in the preheated oven until brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• For the crepe: Beat milk, eggs and 1 cup water in a bowl. Add flour and powdered sugar to make a thin batter.
• Pour 1/4 cup batter on a well-buttered medium hot 10-inch fry pan, spreading it as thin as possible. Fry until light brown, then flip and brown other side until light brown. Turn out on wax paper. Repeat with remaining batter.
• For the cheese filling: Mix ricotta, cream cheese, eggs, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Spread evenly over the surface of a crepe. Tuck in ends and roll up. Cook in butter in a fry pan until brown on both sides. Repeat with remaining crepes and filling.
• Serve with sour cream and fruit preserves.

• Turn crepe over and brown the other side.
• Remove.
• Put 1 Tablespoon cheese on browned surface of each blintz.
• Fold and roll.
• Put in a glass baking dish and keep warm in oven.
• If necessary they could be frozen and when needed thaw and warm and then serve with a dollop of sour cream or a nice fruity syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• With a blender or mixer, combine the batter ingredients until very smooth.
• Pour 1 1/2 cups of the batter into a greased 9X13 baking pan.
• Bake for about 10 minutes or until set.
• Meanwhile, comine the filling ingredients and mix well.
• When bottom layer of batter has set, remove the baking pan from the oven and smoothly spread the cheese filling over it.
• Briefly remix the remaining batter and then gently pour it over the filling, covering it completely.
• Return the pan to the oven and continue to bake for 45-50 minutes or until the top is puffed, set, and browned.
• Remov the Blintz Puff from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes before cutting it into squares.
• Serve immediately, plain or with toppings.

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.

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.

Steps:

• Whisk eggs and milk. In another bowl, mix flour and salt; add to egg mixture and mix well. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour., In a bowl, toss peaches and cherries with 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.

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.
