Instructions

Step 1

Combine Ingredients

In a bowl, combine 500 grams of cottage cheese, 1 large egg, 20 grams of sugar, a pinch of salt, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 50 grams of rice flour.

You can mix everything together with a mixer or your hands until you achieve a smooth consistency.

Step 2

Shape the Syrniki

Take portions of the mixture, about 60 grams each, and shape them into round patties.

Be sure they are well-formed to avoid breaking while frying.

Step 3

Fry the Syrniki

Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.

Fry each syrnik for about 3 minutes on each side.

It's crucial to find the right heat; if it's too low, the syrniki will spread out, and if it's too high, they will burn on the outside but remain raw inside.

Step 4

Finish Cooking

Once golden brown on both sides, you can cover the pan with a lid and lower the heat.

Let the syrniki cook for an additional 5 minutes to ensure they are thoroughly cooked.

Servings

When it comes to serving your **gluten-free cheese pancakes**, possibilities are endless! 🍴 Elevate your meal by pairing these fluffy delights with a dollop of tangy sour cream mixed with a sprinkle of sugar for that perfect sweet-tangy balance.

Want something a bit more indulgent? Drizzle them with sweetened condensed milk or honey! 🐝 Add a handful of fresh berries on the side for color and flavor, creating a dish that not only tastes good but looks amazing on the plate! 😊

For a fun twist, consider serving them as part of a brunch spread. Imagine your guests delighting in a stack of golden pancakes, paired with some crispy bacon or a side of scrambled eggs! 🥓🍳 These pancakes can truly steal the show at any gathering!

Variations

Want to switch things up? Here are a few **gluten-free and vegan variations** to try! 🌱 For a completely plant-based option, simply substitute the egg with a flaxseed meal mix (1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal mixed with 3 tablespoons of water). This will hold your ingredients together beautifully.

If you're looking to amp up the nutritional value, try adding mashed bananas or applesauce to the mix! 🍌🍏 This not only complements the flavor but also provides natural sweetness. And if you’re avoiding dairy, feel free to swap out the cheese for a vegan alternative or leave it out altogether! The pancakes will still be soft and delectable!

Faq

  • What can I do if my cheese pancakes fall apart while cooking?

    If your pancakes are falling apart, it may be due to insufficient binding ingredients. Make sure you've measured the rice flour correctly, and consider increasing the amount slightly or adding another egg to provide more structure.

  • How do I know when the pancakes are cooked through?

    To check if they're cooked, simply look for a golden-brown color on each side. You can also gently press down with your spatula. If it feels firm and springs back, they’re ready!

  • Can I prepare the pancake mix in advance?

    Absolutely! You can mix your batter a few hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. Just give it a good stir before cooking!

  • What should I serve with these pancakes for an impressive breakfast?

    Consider serving them with a fruit compote or fresh fruit salad, alongside a refreshing yogurt! It makes for a complete and appealing breakfast spread!

  • What if I want to make these pancakes extra fluffy?

    For an even fluffier pancake, try beating the egg whites separately until stiff peaks form, then folding them gently into the batter before cooking!

  • Can these pancakes be frozen for later use?

    Yes! These pancakes freeze wonderfully. Just stack them with parchment paper in between, place them in an airtight container, and pop them in the freezer. Reheat in a skillet or microwave when ready to enjoy!
