How to Make Apple Blintzes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, eggs, milk, and melted butter until smooth. Let the batter rest for at least 15 minutes.
  2. While the batter rests, prepare the apple filling: Peel, core, and slice the apples. In a skillet, sauté the apples with butter, cinnamon, sugar, and a pinch of nutmeg until softened and slightly caramelized. Set aside to cool.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot surface for each blintz. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  4. Place a spoonful of the apple filling in the center of each blintz. Fold the sides inward, then roll up tightly.
  5. In a separate skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Brown the blintzes on all sides until lightly golden and heated through.
  6. Serve immediately, optionally topped with powdered sugar, sour cream, or a dollop of whipped cream.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
