How to Make Crepes With Cheese Blintz And Fresh Strawberries

  1. **Prepare the fillings and toppings:** In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese and 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar. Mix well and set aside. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. In a separate small bowl, combine the sour cream and the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries. Cover and refrigerate.
  4. **Make the crepe batter:** In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, water, melted butter, and salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes.
  5. **Cook the crepes:** Heat a lightly greased 6-8 inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Pour 2 tablespoons of batter into the center of the hot skillet.
  6. Immediately lift and tilt the skillet to spread the batter evenly into a thin circle.
  7. Cook for 1 minute, or until the edges begin to lift and the crepe is lightly browned on the bottom.
  8. Flip the crepe and cook for another 30 seconds on the other side.
  9. Slide the cooked crepe onto a plate or wire rack lined with paper towels.
  10. Repeat steps 5-9 until all the batter is used.
  11. **Assemble the blintzes:** Spoon 2 tablespoons of the ricotta filling onto the center of each crepe.
  12. Fold in the sides, then fold up the bottom, rolling tightly into a cigar shape.
  13. **Serve:** Arrange the blintzes on plates. Top with fresh strawberries and drizzle generously with the sour cream topping.
  14. Enjoy your delicious Crepes with Cheese Blintz and Fresh Strawberries!
