Ingredients

• 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 cup Milk
• 3 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Ricotta cheese
• 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 3 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Butter for frying

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour and salt.

Step 2

In another bowl, mix the milk and eggs until well combined.

Step 3

Gradually add the milk and egg mixture to the flour mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps, then add melted butter.

Step 4

Cover the batter and let it rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, combine ricotta cheese, softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Set aside the filling.

Step 6

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter.

Step 7

Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the skillet for each crepe, swirling to spread evenly. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges lift easily and the underside begins to brown, then flip and cook the other side for about 30 seconds.

Step 8

Transfer the crepe to a plate and continue cooking the remaining batter.

Step 9

Lay each crepe on a flat surface, place about 2 tablespoons of cheese filling in the center, fold the sides over, and roll up to enclose the filling.

Step 10

Melt additional butter in the skillet over medium heat, then add the filled blintzes. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 11

Serve warm as-is, or with your choice of toppings such as sour cream, fresh berries, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
