Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, eggs, almond milk, baking powder, and salt until smooth and no lumps remain.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to coat the pan.
Pour about 3 tablespoons of the batter into the pan, swirling it around to create a thin circle that covers the bottom.
Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges start to lift slightly and the bottom is golden brown. Flip carefully and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side. Remove and set aside. Repeat with the remaining batter.
In another bowl, combine cream cheese, ricotta cheese, vanilla extract, and powdered erythritol. Stir until smooth and well blended.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto one side of each cooked blintz component, then fold the sides over the filling and roll it up like a burrito.
Once all blintzes are assembled, wipe the skillet clean and add a little more butter. Place the blintzes back in the skillet seam side down and cook over medium heat until the exterior is lightly golden brown and the filling is warmed through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Serve the low-carb blintzes warm, optionally dusting with a bit more powdered erythritol before serving.
