Syrniki Cheese Pancakes

Syrniki is a traditional Russian and Ukrainian dish, a type of cheese pancake that is sweet and savory. These pancakes are made with a mixture of farmer's cheese, flour, eggs, and sugar, which are then fried until golden brown and served with sour cream, jam, or honey. They are a popular breakfast or snack item in Eastern European cuisine. The combination of the crispy exterior and soft interior, along with the tangy flavor of the cheese, makes for a delightful treat. Syrniki can be enjoyed at any time of day and are perfect for a cozy morning meal or a snack on-the-go.
