Sweet cheese filling goes well with sweet Polish nalesniki, also known as Polish blintzes or filled crepes. Once filled and rolled, they can be baked or pan fried, or dipped in beaten egg and bread crumbs and fried.
Naleski fillings are ideal for any type of filled Polish dumpling, like pierogi, uszka, kolduny and kulebiak.
These nalesniki are a good option for a vegetarian meal.
