    I did not like this recipe. whenever I flipped the blintz, It got destroyed. I only got 1 or 2 correct ones. But for those who don’t care about looks, it was scrumptious!

    my mom makes this recipient too! it’s a family favorite. you have to be a good cook to get the consistency and make them right in the pan. They are so yummy!

    Left each side longer than recommended and then it wasn?t to hard to flip using a copper pan. Tasted great.

    Also I meant to say–a crepe pan is a must or the blintz sticks and falls apart. Thankfully we have one and it worked great.

    They were delicious! This is now my go-to cheese blintz recipe. My first crepe fell apart because I added too much melted butter to the pan and I didn’t let it cook long enough. After I fixed my mistakes the crepes came out great. There are several tricks to keep the crepes in one piece. I used a long fish spatula to turn the crepes over. It gives the crepes more support. I used a 10 inch non-stick fry pan but a crepe pan is better to use. I used a small amount of melted butter in the pan for each crepe. I let my crepes cook on the first side long enough that parts of the cooking side of the crepe was browned. I loosened all the edges of the crepe with the spatula, gently shook the pan to loosen the crepe, then I put my spatula under the edge of the crepe and gently shook the pan a little so I could move my fish spatula under the crepe and gently flip it over to cook the other side of it and when it was done I used my fish spatula to help ease it off the fry pan and onto the plate.

    I really liked them. They worked well with gluten free flour too.

    Worked great for me . I halved the recipe. The wife and I loved them so I’m going to try it again on my son and his family. Thanks!
