These cheese-filled, berry-topped blintzes taste just as mouthwatering and special as they look. Enjoy! Laura Fall-Sutton - Buhl, Idaho Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk |
3 eggs |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
2/3 cup gluten-free all-purpose baking flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
filling: |
1 cup (8 ounces) 2% cottage cheese |
3 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
2-1/4 cups each fresh blueberries and raspberries |
confectioners' sugar, optional |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the milk, eggs and butter. Combine the flour and salt; add to milk mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Coat an 8-in. nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Stir crepe batter; pour 2 tablespoons into center of skillet. Lift and tilt pan to coat bottom evenly. Cook until top appears dry; turn and cook 15-20 seconds longer. Remove to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining batter, coating skillet with cooking spray as needed. When cool, stack crepes with waxed paper or paper towels in between.
3. In a blender, cover and process cheeses until smooth. Add sugar and extract; pulse until combined. Spread a scant 1 tablespoonful onto each crepe. Fold opposite sides of crepe over filling, forming a little bundle.
4. Place seam side down in a 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until heated through. Serve topped with berries and dust with confectioners' sugar if desired. Yield: 9 servings.
