syrniki

Make these delicious, pillowy-soft, cheesy Russian cheese pancakes for a delicious breakfast treat. Serve these syrniki with syrup like traditional American pancakes, or with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt and a spoonful of fruit preserves.

Syrniki Recipe (Russian Cheese Pancakes)

lb farmer's cheese

eggs

all purpose flour (, divided)

sugar

salt

raisins

vegetable oil,

Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, crumble the farmers cheese into little pieces with a fork. Add 2 eggs and mix well. Add ½ cup flour (reserve ⅓ cup for step 2), sugar, and salt. Mix well, using the fork to break apart any clumps of flour or farmer&#39;s cheese. Add raisins, if using. The &#39;batter&#39; will be thick like dough, not like traditional pancake batter.  

Form the syrniki pancakes: Prepare a small bowl with about ⅓ cup flour - you will use it to dredge the pancakes. Scoop out approximately ¼ cup pancake dough at a time. (See recipe notes below)  Use your hands to gently flatten the dough into a small patty. Dredge the pancake with flour on both sides. Shake off the extra flour and set aside until you are ready to cook the syrniki pancakes. 

Cook the syrniki pancakes: In a large skillet, heat 3-4 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and gently place the flour-dredged cheese pancakes into the pan using a spatula. Cook on medium-low heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown. Place on a paper towel to cool.&nbsp;Do not crowd the pancakes - cook them in 2-3 batches if necessary.&nbsp;

To serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or drizzle with maple syrup, honey, whipped cream. Or try these syrniki the traditional Russian way - with sour cream and your favorite fruit preserves.&nbsp;

Farmer's Cheese Pancakes

Apple and cheese pancakes are so light and fluffy. Serve these Ukrainian cheese pancakes with jam and sour cream for an unforgettable breakfast! Visit natashaskitchen.com for the farmers cheese recipe and tutorial.

Farmers Cheese Pancakes with Apple (Syrniki)

farmers cheese (homemade

all-purpose flour + 1/2 cup for dredging

Tbsp sugar

tsp salt

cinnamon

tsp baking soda

tsp white vinegar

apple (any variety, peeled, cored and finely diced (about 1 1/2 cups))

olive oil (canola or vegetable oil, to sautee)

How to Make Farmer Cheese Pancakes:

In a large bowl combine 2 cups farmers cheese, 4 eggs, 3/4 cup flour, 3 Tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Use an electric hand mixer on medium speed and mix just until well blended.

Place 1 tsp baking soda into a small ramekin and add 1 tsp vinegar then stir to combine. It should fizz. Pour this mixture into the batter and mix until well blended. Use a spatula to fold in diced apples. The mixture will thicken slightly as it stands.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium/low heat and add 2 to 3 Tbsp oil.

Fill a shallow bowl with 1/2 cup flour. Add batter a heaping tablespoon at a time (I used a flat ice cream scoop). Sprinkle flour generously over the top then gently lift pancake and pat from one hand to another to remove excess flour.

Saute in hot oil over med/low heat about 3 min per side. Flip when starting to form tiny bubbles on top. Transfer to a platter and serve warm with your favorite topping such as jam and sour cream!

What I really mean to say is smothered in jam and sour cream. Absolutely delicious!

Ukrainian Syrniki Recipe (Cheese Pancakes)

olive oil

Fresh fruit or jam (sour cream, powdered sugar; whatever you like!)

In a large bowl, mix together cheese, eggs, 3/4 cup flour, sugar and salt.

Place baking soda in a small bowl and add vinegar; give it a stir as it fizzes. Add this mixture to the cheese mix.

With a hand-held electric mixer, mix until uniform consistency. Stir in the raisins with a spoon. It will still have some little cheese clumps.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add 2-3 Tbsp extra light olive oil.

Add 1/2 cup flour to a small bowl. Place a heaping tablespoon of flat ice cream scoop of the cheese mixture into the flour. Reach into the bowl and sprinkle flour over the top of the pancake. With Well-floured hands, remove excess flour by gently transferring the pancake from one hand to another.

Once the skillet and oil are hot, place patties directly into the skillet as you mold them. Saute until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes each side, flipping once during cooking.

Transfer to a plate and serve with your favorite toppings like sour cream, fruit and powdered sugar.

Sweet fritters made with farmers cheese, eggs, and flour.&nbsp;

Sweet Cheese Fritters Syrniki

450 grams/1 lbs farmer's cheese (could use well-drained ricotta cheese)

eggs (large)

tbsp oil

tbsp sugar

flour

tsp baking powder

vanilla

Combine cheese, eggs, sugar, oil, flour, baking powder and vanilla in a medium size bowl and mix all the ingredients with a hand mixer until you get a homogenous mass- no longer than 2-3 minutes. The mixture will be very sticky.&nbsp;

Put the non-stick or cast iron frying pan on the stove on medium heat and add 3 tbsp of oil to it.

Dust a clean work surface with some flour. Take a regular soup spoon and start scooping the mixture from the bowl. Put it directly on the floured surface and roll it in the flour, then flatten it with your palm to make it into a patty. Continue the process with the rest of your cheese mixture until it’s all gone. You should get about 14 patties.

Before you start frying your syrniki make sure the oil in the frying pan is very hot by sprinkling a bit of flour into it. If it sizzles it’s hot enough. Fry the syrniki the same way you would pancakes. When you turn them over they should puff up a bit. The flour coating will make the outside slightly crispy while the mostly cheese filling will taste light and delicious.

Dust syrniki with icing sugar as the final touch and serve them with your favourite jam or a fruit sauce. If you want a truly Russian experience enjoy them with a bit of “smetana”-creme fraiche

This is my favorite recipe for syrniki (farmer’s cheese pancakes). It is so easy to whip up these delectable, fluffy Russian cheese pancakes for a scrumptious breakfast delight. Pancakes are traditional in America; in Eastern Europe, they’re syrniki! 

Syrniki (farmer’s cheese pancakes)

of farmers’ cheese

of semolina (Manka)

flour flour

2-3 tbl sugar- depending how sweet you want them

tsp vanilla extract or vanilla sugar

golden raisins (optional)

oil olive oil or avocado oil

Add the farmer’s cheese in a large bowl and break it up with a fork to ensure there aren’t any big clumps of cheese. Then add the rest of the ingredients and mix it very well until you get a smooth batter. The syrniki batter will be thick. You can use a fork or a handheld mixer (I prefer to use a fork because I like the little clumps of cheese)

Flour a cutting board, then use an ice cream scoop to portion the syrniki. This will help to get beautiful and even syrniki throughout. Place the batter into your palm and roll it into a ball. Place the syrniki on the floured board and use the bottom of a glass to slightly press down on it to give it it’s shape. You want the syrniki to still be thick but with flat tops. Dust flour on top and the sides. 

Heat a large pan on medium heat, drizzle in 2 tablespoons of oil, and fry the syrniki for 3 minutes on both sides or until golden brown. Place them on a paper towel to drain any excess oil, dust with powdered sugar, and Enjoy while they are warm! Serve (farmer’s cheese pancakes) with fresh berries, fruit preserves, maple syrup, sour cream, or Greek yogurt!

Syrniki are pancakes made with farmer (or homemade) cheese. Traditionally syrniki are served with sour cream. I like to serve syrniki with fresh berries and powdered sugar. 

Syrniki (Ukrainian Cheese Pancakes)

453 gr farmer cheese 16 oz

gr sugar

egg room temperature

g salt

vanilla bean paste

In the large bowl, mix farm cheese, egg, white rice flour, powdered sugar (sifted), salt, and vanilla bean paste.

You will need ¼ cup ice cream scoop with a squeeze-release handle. Simply scoop some dough and place it on the table (or cutting board), previously sprinkled with some rice flour. 

Cover a piece of dough with the glass or teacup and circle a few times. Then flip that patty and circle again.

Repeat with the rest of the dough. 

Heat a large skillet over medium heat, add 1-2 tbsp oil or butter.

Once the skillet and oil are hot, place the patties directly into the skillet. Saute until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Do not crowd the syrniki, cook them in 3-4 batches if necessary. 

Transfer to a plate and serve with fresh berries. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. 

This is the best syrnyky recipe I’ve made. Great texture, tasty, I’ve added raisins to mine. Super yummy. Thank you Marina. Your recipes never fail.

Russian Syrniki - Cheese Pancakes (Video)

kilogram cottage cheese (tvorog

powdered sugar

all-purpose flour (plus extra for dusting)

vanilla extract

Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, egg yolks, powdered sugar, flour, and vanilla extract. If the cottage cheese is very grainy, press it through a sieve to smooth it out.

Shape: Shape the mixture into small patties, each weighing 50 grams. Dust them with extra flour to make handling easier.

Freeze: For best results, freeze the shaped syrniki for at least an hour to help them hold their shape while frying.

Fry the Syrniki: Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of oil or clarified butter. Fry each syrnik for about 2 minutes per side until golden brown. After frying, bake them for 6 minutes in a preheated oven at 320°F (160°C).

This perfect recipe for our great syrniki! You have to use tvorog for real syrniki flavor.

Syrniki are traditional Slavic breakfast pancakes from a cheese called tvorog. Similar to cottage cheese, just a touch tangier. It's easy to make, can be frozen cooked dor uncooked and is served with sour cream and cherry jam, although you can skip the sugar and simply make a healthy convenient snack.
