Cheese Blintez

Ingredients:

Blintez Batter

🍓1 cup flour

🍓1 tsp baking powder

🍓1/4 tsp salt

🍓1 tbsp sugar

🍓1/2 tsp vanilla extract

🍓2 eggs

🍓1 cup milk

🍓1 Tbsp cooking oil

🔖1/4 cup water (if batter too thick)

Filling:

🍓1 cup sour cream

🍓1 tbsp sugar

🍓1/2 tsp vanilla extract

🍓2 tbsp walnuts

🍓2 tbsp raisins/dried cranberries

🍓2 tbsp chopped almonds

🍓Top with powdered sugar 

Directions:

Mix all batter ingredients to make a smooth thin batter, if batter is too thick add a bit of water (or milk) until you have reached the consistency.

Heat a large flat pan with just a little bit of oil spray, when hot, grab a ladle and pour onto the pan, spread and shape the batter into a large circle, this will take practice, watch my video to see how I do it 📺.

when batter is cooked on one side we will now flip it and wait about 30 seconds, place it on a plate and stack all of your crepes.

Filling: Mix all ingredients into a thick paste, taste it, I don't like it too sweet because I like to add maple syrup on top...  but you can defiantly add more sugar to the mix.

Place the cheese in the center of the crepe and roll, I like mine small so i cut the crepe in half and make them into smaller portions.

Powder some sugar on top and serve with strawberries and whipped cream.

Enjoy🍓
