Cheese Pancakes Or Syrniki Recipe

Cheese Pancakes, also known as Syrniki in Eastern European cuisine, are a delightful and versatile griddled cake or pancake made predominantly with cottage cheese or quark. These soft, fluffy pancakes are lightly sweetened and can be enjoyed as a breakfast treat, a dessert, or even a savory snack, depending on the additional ingredients used and how they are served. They are traditionally cooked until golden brown on the outside but remain soft and creamy on the inside, providing a unique texture that sets them apart from other pancake varieties.
