⭐️ Nutrition facts:

Syrniki are rich in protein, with approximately 15-20 grams per serving, making them an excellent choice for muscle repair and growth. The carbs present, around 30-40 grams, provide energy, while the moderate fat content of 10-15 grams adds to the satiety and flavor of the pancakes. Adding sour cream and jam can further enrich the taste and texture, although it also adds to the calorie count.
