If you're looking for a tasty gluten free breakfast, you have come to the right place! A gluten free blintz is EXACTLY the sweet start you need to kick off a fabulous day. Tangy cream cheese and sweet raspberry jam fill these gluten free crepes to make delicious blintzes!
Breakfast just got a MAJOR upgrade.
What is a Gluten free Blintz? It's basically a sweet crepe stuffed with cream cheese and jelly. They are sweet and tangy and so satisfying in the morning.
They are an awesome dish to make for brunch. Invite some friends over and get cookin'. Everyone loves brunch, right? Gluten free Blintzes seem super fancy but are really simple to make, and I assure you, everyone will LOVE them.
You can also just make these for yourself. No party needed, and I won't judge! You'll just end up with a lot of gluten free blintz (is that really a problem?). If you're not in the mood to halve the recipe, you can save whatever you don't eat for another day. These crepes will last in the fridge for up to 5 days and can even be frozen for longer storage.
This recipe is based on my gluten free crepe recipe, and it's REALLY easy to make. Trust me on this. If you think of weekend meals ahead of time as I do, you'll LOVE a trick I do when making these crepes. It's not really fancy, per se, but it is a time saver. I make the crepe batter the night before.
This is beneficial for two reasons. 1. The batter has plenty of time to rest, which allows the flour to absorb the liquid properly, making for a better batter. 2. It saves you time in the morning. No need to wait around for the batter to rest after making it. Once your skillet is hot, you're ready to make a delicious gluten free blintz!
You can also change up the flavor a bit by using different jellies. I used Raspberry for the recipe, but you can try blackberry jelly, blueberry jelly, grape jelly, or even marmalade. Go where your heart takes you with the flavor because the fruity possibilities are endless!
