Naleśniki — Sweet Cheese Crêpes

Ingredients

• 1 cup flour
• 1¼ cups milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 pinch salt
• 8 oz farmer cheese or ricotta
• 3 tbsp powdered sugar, plus more for dusting
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 lemon, zested
• 3 tbsp butter
• Berry jam, for serving

Method

1. Blend flour, milk, eggs, and salt into a thin batter; rest 15 minutes so the crêpes roll without cracking.
2. Beat the cheese with powdered sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest until creamy.
3. Swirl a little butter in an 8-inch nonstick pan over medium. Pour in a thin layer of batter, tilt to coat, and cook until the edges lift, about 1 minute per side. Stack as you go.
4. Spread each crêpe with filling, fold into quarters or roll into cigars.
5. Brown the folded crêpes briefly in the remaining butter until golden at the seams, then dust with powdered sugar and serve with jam.
