Indulge in the low-carb decadence of these Keto Blintzes, a delightful twist on the classic Eastern European favorite. Perfectly thin, golden crepes made from almond flour, cream cheese, and eggs are filled with a creamy, cinnamon-spiked cottage cheese mixture, creating a guilt-free treat thatβs rich in flavor and keto-friendly. With just 15 minutes of prep time, these gluten-free and sugar-free blintzes are as quick to make as they are satisfying. Lightly pan-fried in butter for a golden finish, theyβre ideal for a special breakfast, brunch, or even a dessert. Serve them warm with a sprinkle of erythritol and cinnamon for a comforting, wholesome dish that perfectly balances sweet and savory.
In a blender, combine the almond flour, cream cheese, eggs, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is smooth and resembles a batter.
In a medium bowl, mix the cottage cheese, 1 tablespoon of erythritol sweetener, and cinnamon together to prepare the filling. Set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread it out evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes or until the edges start to set.
Carefully flip the crepe using a spatula and cook for another 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
Remove the crepe from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Fill each crepe with a generous spoonful of the cottage cheese filling and fold it like a burrito, tucking in the sides.
Once all crepes are filled, heat the remaining butter in the skillet over medium heat.
Return the filled crepes to the skillet, seam side down, and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden and warmed through.
Serve the keto blintzes warm, optionally dusted with a little extra erythritol and a sprinkle of cinnamon for garnish.
