Instructions
Step 1
Start by mixing the cottage cheese with the sugar, rice flour, egg yolk, and a pinch of salt. Make sure the mixture is homogenous for the best texture. If you prefer, you can pass the cottage cheese through a sieve for a smoother consistency, but this is optional.
Step 2
Wet your hands lightly with water to prevent sticking and roll the mixture into small balls, about 50-55 grams (1.75-2 ounces) each. Dredge the balls in rice flour to coat them well and then flatten them into patties or syrniki.
Step 3
Place the formed syrniki on a floured surface. Heat a pan over medium heat and fry the syrniki until they are golden brown, approximately 2-3 minutes on each side. Ensure they are evenly cooked for the best flavor.
Step 4
In a bowl, combine the sour cream, heavy cream, and powdered sugar. Stir well until the mixture is smooth. This will create a delicious creamy topping for your syrniki.
Step 5
Pour the creamy mixture into a baking dish and carefully place the fried syrniki on top. Preheat your oven to 160 degrees Celsius (320 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake for 15-20 minutes. This will help to meld the flavors beautifully.
Step 6
Once baked, you can optionally drizzle honey or jam over the warm syrniki for added sweetness. Enjoy your freshly made baked syrniki as a delightful treat!
Servings
Once your syrniki are baked to perfection, presentation is key. Arrange them on a beautiful platter and drizzle with honey or your favorite jam to make them even more enticing.
For an added touch, you can serve them with fresh fruits like berries or slices of banana. The sweet and tart notes complement the creamy texture of the syrniki wonderfully. You could even sprinkle some powdered sugar on top for that extra flair! 🌟
These syrniki are perfect for a cozy breakfast gathering or a delightful brunch with friends. Imagine everyone sitting around the table, sharing stories, and enjoying this delicious dish together. Creating memories over food is what it’s all about! 🥰
Equipment

A wooden spoon or spatula can be your best friend in the kitchen. They are great for mixing and flipping your syrniki with ease!
Variations
If you’re looking to customize your syrniki, we’ve got you covered! 💚 For a gluten-free option, simply replace the regular flour with almond flour or a gluten-free blend. This will give you all the delicious flavor without the gluten!
If you're considering a vegan twist, try using a plant-based alternative like coconut yogurt instead of sour cream, and a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tbsp water) instead of the egg yolk. Your syrniki will still be tasty without any animal products! 🌱
Faq
- What type of cottage cheese should I use for syrniki?
It's best to use a fresh, creamy cottage cheese with a fat content between 5-9%. This will ensure your syrniki are rich and flavorful.
- How do I know when my syrniki are done frying?
They are finished when they are golden brown on both sides, which usually takes 2-3 minutes per side over medium heat.
- Can I make the dough ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the dough in advance and refrigerate it, but it's best to shape and cook the syrniki fresh for optimal texture.
- Can I freeze the uncooked syrniki?
Definitely! Shape your syrniki and place them on a tray to freeze before storing them in a freezer bag. Cook from frozen, adding a couple of minutes to the cooking time.
- How can I ensure my syrniki don’t fall apart while frying?
Make sure to let the dough rest a little before frying. This helps the ingredients to bind better. Also, don't skip the rice flour coating; it helps keep their shape!
- What can I serve with syrniki?
They're delightful with honey, fruit preserves, or fresh fruit. For a savory twist, serve with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
