A blintz (Hebrew: חֲבִיתִית; Yiddish: בלינצע) is a rolled filled pancake of Ashkenazi Jewish origin, similar to a crepe or Russian blini.

History[]

Traditional blintzes are filled with sweetened cheese, sometimes with the addition of raisins. They are served on Shavuot.^[1] The word blintz in English comes from the Yiddish word בלינצע or blintse, coming from a Slavic word блинец [blin-yets] meaning pancake.^[2]
