Jewish Cracker Snacks image

My Jewish grandma used to make homemade cheese blintzes, which are crepes. I adapted this for my family as a snack. Making crepes can be tedious; these are wonderful.

Time 25m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (8 ounce) container cottage cheese
¼ cup matzo meal
¼ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
40 whole saltine crackers
2 eggs
¼ cup vegetable oil, or as needed

Steps:

  • Stir together the cottage cheese, matzo meal, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Place about 1 tablespoon of the cheese filling onto a cracker, top with another cracker, and press down. Set the filled crackers aside. Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip both sides of each filled cracker in the beaten egg, then place into the hot oil. Pan-fry the cracker snacks on both sides until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve hot.
