Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups blueberries, fresh or frozen
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar (for blueberry sauce)
• 0.25 cups water
• 1 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, milk, eggs, melted butter, granulated sugar, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.

Step 3

Pour 2 tablespoons of the batter onto the skillet and swirl to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for about 1-2 minutes or until the edges start to lift. Flip and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove and repeat with the remaining batter to make 12 crepes.

Step 4

In another bowl, whisk together ricotta cheese, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 5

Place a crepe on a flat surface. Add 2 tablespoons of the cheese filling into the center, fold the sides in, and roll it up like a burrito. Repeat with the remaining crepes and filling.

Step 6

To make the blueberry sauce, combine blueberries, granulated sugar, and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 2 teaspoons of water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the blueberry mixture and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.

Step 8

In the same skillet used for the crepes, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Cook the filled blintzes for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and lightly crisp.

Step 9

Serve the blintzes warm, topped with the blueberry sauce.
