Ingredients
Syrniki Base Ingredients
Sour Cream Filling Ingredients
Instructions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the *cottage cheese*, *egg*, *vanilla sugar*, and *rice flour*. Mix thoroughly until you have a smooth, consistent dough.
Once mixed, shape the dough into small patties known as *syrniki* and coat them lightly in flour. Ensure they are neat and round, then place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Step 2
Using your thumb, create a small indentation in the center of each syrniki. This will hold the delicious sour cream filling!
In a separate bowl, blend together the *sour cream*, *egg*, *vanilla sugar*, and *cornstarch* until creamy. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of this mixture into the indentation of each syrniki.
Top each filled syrniki with *3 fresh berries*. These can be any berry of your choice, adding both flavor and color to your dish.
Step 3
Preheat your oven to 180-200 degrees Celsius (350-400 degrees Fahrenheit). Once heated, place the tray with the syrniki into the oven and *bake for about 25-30 minutes* or until they are golden brown on top.
Check them occasionally to ensure they don’t overcook. The goal is to have them gently browned and soft inside.
Step 4
Once baked, carefully remove the syrniki from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Drizzle with *melted white chocolate* for an indulgent touch and *garnish with fresh berries* on top. This step not only enhances the flavor but also adds visual appeal.
Serve warm and enjoy your delightful and healthy country-style dessert!
Servings
Once your Сырники are baked to golden perfection, it’s time to serve them up in style! Consider placing them on a lovely platter, perhaps dusted delicately with powdered sugar for that Instagram-worthy touch. Serve them warm with a drizzle of melted white chocolate or a sweet honey glaze, which pairs beautifully with the tanginess of the cottage cheese. 🍯✨ Don’t forget to scatter fresh berries on top for that pop of color and flavor. These little treats are perfect for a cozy brunch gathering or as a light dessert for special occasions. Enjoy them with a robust cup of coffee or a delightful herbal tea! ☕🍓
Equipment
This is essential for holding your Сырники! Always line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup a breeze.

For forming perfectly round Сырники, a cookie cutter can make all the difference. It also allows for a uniform shape that looks amazing once baked.
Variations
Looking for a twist on the classic? Here are some exciting variations to make your baked Сырники even better! 🌟 For a gluten-free version, swap regular flour for almond or coconut flour. You'll maintain a delightful texture while accommodating dietary needs. 🌱✨ On the other hand, if you want to keep your recipe completely plant-based, try using a firm tofu blend instead of cottage cheese and replace eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water. You'll get fluffy results that everyone can enjoy! 🍰
Faq
- What’s the best way to prevent my Сырники from sticking to the baking sheet?
Always line your baking sheet with parchment paper! This will ensure they come out easily and keep their beautiful shape.
- Can I make these Сырники ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the mixture a day before and store it in the refrigerator. Just form and bake them right before serving for the best texture.
- How do I know when my Сырники are fully baked?
They should be golden on top and slightly firm to the touch. A little jiggle is okay, as they will continue to set after being removed from the oven.
- Can I add different flavors to the cheese mixture?
Definitely! Experiment with lemon zest, cinnamon, or even a splash of vanilla extract for a delightful twist.
- What can I substitute for cottage cheese if I don’t have it?
You can use ricotta cheese or even strained yogurt in a pinch! Each will add a different, yet delicious flavor.
- Are there any tips for perfecting the creamy topping?
Ensure that all ingredients for the topping are at room temperature before mixing. This will create a smoother, creamier consistency!
