Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or cooking spray
- Optional: additional powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, granulated sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until the batter is smooth and lump-free. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
While the batter rests, prepare the filling by combining the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Mix until smooth. Gently fold in the blueberries and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or crepe pan over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil or cooking spray.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting to coat the surface evenly and create a thin crepe. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the edges begin to lift and the bottom is golden. Flip and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking the crepes on a plate and covering with a clean towel to keep warm.
To assemble the blintzes, place one crepe on a flat surface. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the blueberry filling into the center. Fold the bottom edge up over the filling, fold in the sides, and roll up like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.
Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with vegetable oil. Pan-fry the filled blintzes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden and warmed through.
Serve the blueberry blintzes warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired!
