Note

Serve warm with fresh fruit compote, jam, or a dollop of sour cream for added richness.

Ensure blintzes are fully defrosted before baking to ensure even cooking of the custard topping.

You can substitute half-and-half for the sour cream for a lighter texture, though the flavor will be less tangy.
