Pancakes Made With Farmers Cheese Food

PANCAKES MADE WITH FARMER'S CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Mix all ingredients in a mixing bowl until you get thick cookie dough consistency. The mixture will stay grainy because of the cheese.
• Scoop one tablespoon of dough in your hand, shape to the form of a pancake. Continue until all the dough is gone.
• Bake for about 25 minutes, turning the pancakes once half way through, until both sides are nicely brown.
• Brush with melted butter or ghee before serving.

SYRNIKI (Сырники / FARMER'S CHEESE PANCAKES)

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks into the farmer's cheese, then stir in the sugar. Mix together 1⁄2 cup of the flour, the baking powder, and the salt and add to the cheese mixture. If the mixture seems dry, add a little heavy cream.
• Place the butter and oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick skillet and melt the butter.
• Sprinkle the remaining 1⁄4 cup flour onto a plate and dust your hands with some flour, too. With your hands or a spoon, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the batter and set the mound on the floured plate. Use your hands to gently shape it into a round patty about 2 inches in diameter and coat it lightly on all sides with flour. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Carefully transfer the patties to the pan and cook them slowly until the undersides are browned, about 3 minutes. Turn with a spatula and cook until the other sides are browned, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve immediately, with sour cream.
