Tvorog pancakes — a fifteen-minute breakfast.
About this recipe
Dry tvorog and as little flour as the dough will tolerate. Too much flour and you get scones; the batter should be barely holding together when you shape it.
Ingredients
500 g Tvorog (farmer cheese)
1 pcs Egg
3 tbsp Wheat flour
2 tbsp Sugar
1 pinch Salt
3 tbsp Sunflower oil
200 g SmetanaOptional
100 g Raspberry preserveOptional
2 tbsp HoneyOptional
Instructions
Step 1
Place the tvorog in a large bowl and mash it with a fork until the large curds are broken down.
1 minutes
Step 2
Add the egg, sugar, salt, and half the flour to the bowl, mixing briefly until a sticky dough barely holds together.
Step 3
Dust a clean work surface with the remaining flour, then form the dough into a log and slice into eight equal patties.
3 minutes
Step 4
Gently press each patty to flatten into a disc shaped about 1 inch thick.
Step 5
Heat 1.5 tablespoons of sunflower oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2 minutes
Step 6
Place the patties in the pan, ensuring they do not touch, and fry until the bottoms are golden brown.
4 minutes

Flip the patties, add the remaining oil if needed, and fry until the other side is golden and the center is set.
4 minutes
Step 8
