  6. Whisk eggs, milk, cinnamon, and sweetener until combined.
  7. Quickly dip each filled blintz or lightly brush with egg mixture.

  9. Place seam-side down in a buttered pan. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown.

Notes

We tested this recipe multiple ways and found that soaking the almond flour tortillas caused tearing. For best results, we recommend filling and rolling first, then lightly coating with egg instead of soaking.
