Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a blender, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 1 cup whole milk, and 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter; blend until smooth and let batter rest 15 minutes.
  2. Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and brush with melted butter. Pour about 1/4 cup batter, swirling to evenly coat the bottom; cook for 1-2 minutes until edges lift, then flip and cook another 30 seconds. Transfer cooked crepes to a plate and repeat until batter is used.
  3. Step 3: In a bowl, mix together 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese, 1/2 cup softened cream cheese, 1/3 cup powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
  4. Step 4: Spoon about 2 tbsp of the cheese filling onto the center of each crepe, fold the sides over, then roll up gently.
  5. Step 5: For the honey drizzle, whisk 1/4 cup honey with 1 tsp orange zest and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice.
  6. Step 6: Serve blintzes warm or at room temperature, drizzled with the citrus honey sauce and dusted lightly with powdered sugar.
