blintzes
Rolled stuffed pancakes
Blintzes are thin pancakes filled with sweetened cheese, fruit, or other fillings, then folded and fried or baked.
A staple of Jewish cuisine, they resemble French crêpes but are typically stuffed and served as a main dish or dessert: cheese blintzes with sour cream, blueberry blintzes for brunch.
Singular: blintz.
