Blintzes are the rolled Jewish pancakes that are rolled around a sweet cheese filling. They are often served for a dairy supper or for breakfast, brunch. We took all the goodness and tasty goodness of the traditional blintz and turned it into a souffle. It's alot less work, lactose-free, gluten free and fodmap-friendly.

¼ cup Green Valley Creamery Lactose-Free Butter, melted
1/3 cup sugar

½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, with a rack in the center. Butter an 8-inch square baking dish.
- In a bowl, stir together the cottage cheese, cream cheese, butter and sugar until blended. Gently stir in the flour, eggs, lemon juice, vanilla extract and baking powder.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared pan; sprinkle with the cinnamon.
- Bake until the soufflé is set and the edges are just beginning to turn gold, between 40 and 45 minutes.
- While the souffle is cooking, make the sauce. Combine the orange juice, sugar, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan and boil, stirring occasionally, until translucent and thickened.
- Stir in the berries and simmer 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the zest and lemon juice and cool.
- When the souffle is done, cool briefly on a wire rack. Spoon the sauce over the cooled souffle and serve warm, or refrigerate and serve cold. Enjoy!
