Here is another traditional Shavuot recipe that hails from Hungary. These pancakes resemble crapes with a cream cheese and raisin filling. After they are stuffed, the blintzes are buttered and baked in the oven. Serve them hot with a dusting of powdered sugar, cinnamon, and sour cream for dipping.

Crepes Suzettes is an iconic dish of paper-thin pancakes that are broiled with a zesty orange butter. After preparing the crepes, spread them with the orange butter and fold them into triangles, and broil until lightly caramelized. They are a favorite dish of mine for breakfast or brunch.

This basic crepe batter is both simple yet delicious. It is a perfect vehicle for either sweet or savory fillings and toppings.
