🍳 How to cook (4 servings):
Making the Crepes
Begin by whisking together flour, milk, and eggs until a smooth batter forms. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat, lightly greased with butter or oil. Pour just enough batter to thinly cover the bottom of the pan, swirling to spread evenly. Cook until the edges start to dry and the bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook for a few more seconds. Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Preparing the Cheese Filling
Combine your choice of ricotta cheese or cottage cheese with a bit of sugar, and an egg if desired, to bind the mixture together. Mix until smooth.
Assembling the Blintzes
Place a spoonful of the cheese filling on one side of each crepe. Fold in the sides and roll up tightly to encase the filling. Heat a bit of butter or oil in a pan over medium heat, and fry the blintzes until they are golden brown on all sides, ensuring a crispy exterior while keeping the filling warm and creamy.
