Ingredients

makes 12; serves 6

  

For the crêpes

3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole milk

  5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

  2 large eggs

  1 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  1/4 teaspoon coarse salt

  3 tablespoons canola oil

  Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting

  

For the sauce

1 pint blueberries (about 2 cups)

  6 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar

  1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

  Pinch of coarse salt

  

For the filling

16 ounces cottage cheese

  4 ounces cream cheese, softened

  1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons granulated sugar

  1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise, seeds scraped and reserved, bean discarded

  1/2 pint blueberries (about 1 cup)

  

Step 1

Make the crêpe batter: Whisk together milk, 1/2 cup water, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and the eggs in a medium bowl. Whisk in flour and salt; set aside.

  

Step 2

Make the sauce: Combine blueberries, sugar, butter, lemon juice, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring mixture to a low boil. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring often, until berries begin to break down and release their juices, about 10 minutes. Set aside.

  

Step 3

Make the filling: Purée cottage cheese, cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla seeds in a food processor. Transfer to a medium bowl; stir in blueberries.

  

Step 4

Make the crêpes: Stir together the remaining 3 tablespoons melted butter and the oil in a small bowl; reserve 1/4 cup for cooking blintzes. Heat an 8-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly brush pan using remaining butter-oil mixture. Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into pan; swirl to form an even layer. Cook until bottom is lightly browned, about 1 1/2 minutes. Using a heatproof spatula, flip crêpe; cook 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining butter-oil mixture and batter.

  

Step 5

Transfer a crêpe to a clean work surface. Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons filling onto crêpe 1 inch from bottom and sides. Fold bottom over filling. Fold in sides, and roll up. Set aside, seam down. Repeat with remaining crêpes and filling.

  

Step 6

Heat the reserved 1/4 cup butter-oil mixture in a clean pan over medium heat. Working in batches of 3, fry blintzes, turning once, until golden and crisp, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes per side. Place 2 blintzes on each plate. Spoon warm sauce over top, and dust with confectioners’ sugar.
