Instructions
- Step 1: In a blender, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup milk, 2 large eggs, 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, and 1/4 tsp salt. Blend until smooth and let batter rest for 15 minutes.
- Step 2: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of vegetable oil. Pour about 1/4 cup batter and swirl to coat the bottom in a thin even layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes until edges lift easily and bottom is lightly browned, then flip and cook 30 seconds more. Repeat for 8 crepes.
- Step 3: In a bowl, mix 1 cup ricotta cheese, 3 tbsp honey, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Step 4: Place about 2 tbsp of the ricotta filling in the center of each crepe, fold the sides over the filling, then roll up tightly.
- Step 5: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in the skillet over medium heat. Fry each filled blintz for 2 minutes per side until golden and warmed through.
- Step 6: Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar and an extra drizzle of honey if desired.
