Instructions

Step 1

Making Coconut Syrniki

Begin by whipping the eggs together with the powdered sugar and a pinch of salt using a fork. Make sure everything is well blended.

Next, add the shredded coconut to the mixture and stir it in. Then incorporate the farmer's cheese and approximately 3 tablespoons of flour.

Mix everything until it reaches a uniform consistency. Now, shape the mixture into small balls; you should end up with about 8 pieces.

Finally, heat some coconut oil in a frying pan and fry the syrniki until they form a golden crust on both sides.

Step 2

Preparing Mini-Casseroles

For the base, combine the farmer's cheese, egg, vanilla powder, sugar, sour cream, and flour in a mixing bowl. Blend until you achieve a smooth mixture.

Once mixed, form small balls and create indentations in each to hold the filling.

Fill each indentation with sour cream, then add the berries of your choice, and sprinkle with sugar for sweetness.

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake the mini-casseroles for 20 minutes until they are set and golden.

Variations

If you're looking for **gluten-free** options, simply replace the regular flour with almond flour or oat flour to ensure these delicious treats remain soft and fluffy. 🌾 Just make sure your baking powder is gluten-free as well!

For a **vegan** twist, substitute eggs with flax eggs or unsweetened applesauce and use coconut yogurt instead of sour cream. This way, you can enjoy the delightful flavors without the animal products! 🌱🍽️

Faq

  • What can I use instead of cottage cheese?

    You can try ricotta or even blended silken tofu for a similar texture and protein boost!

  • How do I prevent my pancakes from becoming too dense?

    Make sure not to over-mix the batter; it’s okay if it’s a bit lumpy. Also, letting the batter rest for a few minutes can help.

  • How do I store leftovers?

    Keep your pancakes and muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge. They can also be frozen for longer storage!

  • Can I use frozen berries instead of fresh ones?

    Absolutely! Just make sure to thaw them and pat them dry to avoid adding too much moisture to your dish.

  • What's the key to getting pancakes perfectly golden brown?

    Cooking them on medium heat and letting them develop a nice crust before flipping is key. Patience is the secret ingredient!

  • How can I enhance the flavor of my pancakes?

    Adding spices like cinnamon or vanilla can elevate the flavor. A touch of coconut extract would also complement the coconut flavor beautifully!
