Off the heat, add about 3 tablespoons pancake batter to the pan in one fell swoop. Gently tilt and rotate the pan to coat the bot- tom with a thin layer of batter. (Pour back any excess — the pancake should be as thin as pos- sible.) 3. Cook the pancake until done but not brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side, turning with a spatula. As the pancakes are done, stack them on a plate on top of one another. You won't need to spray the pan between every crepe, but if the - third or fourth crepe starts to stick, spray the pan again. The pancakes can be prepared up to 24 hours ahead to this stage and refrigerated. Let them cool to room temperature before separating and wrapping. Makes 14 to 16 pancakes.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, egg substitute, sugar, vanilla, lemon zest and cinnamon (if using) and stir to mix. The mixture should be as thick as soft ice cream. If too wet, add more breadcrumbs. Lay one of the pancakes dark side up on a work surface and place a mound of cheese mixture (about 3 tablespoons) in the center. Fold the bottom of the pan- cake over the filling, then fold in the sides. Fold down the top of the pan- cake to make a rectangular package about 3 inches long and 2 inches wide. Place the blintz seam side down on a plate you've lined with plastic wrap. Assemble the remaining blintzes the same way. 4. Arrange the blintzes in a baking dish or baking sheet that's been light- ly oiled with spray oil. Brush the tops with melted butter (if using). Bake the blintzes until puffed and lightly browned and the filling is set, 15-20 minutes. Serve the blintzes at once with sour cream and jam on the side. Makes 12 blintzes, which will serve 4.
