Succulent Syrniki

10 Minutes •
Syrniki, a decadent Russian dish, is much like a mini cheesecake in pancake form. Our healthier take on this classic recipe swaps out traditional flour with our own Dilettoso mix, giving you a gluten-free, delight. These fluffy, golden-brown treats are irresistible.

What you need

  • 1/2 Cup Vava Vanilla Dilettoso Mix
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/3 Cup Cottage Cheese or Ricotta Cheese
  • Cooking spray or Butter (we used avocado oil. We also love Ghee!)
  • Toppings: Jam of Choice or Honey, Yogurt and Fresh Fruits

How to do it

  1. ADD to a bowl, cottage cheese and egg. Stir to combine.
  2. SIFT in Va Vanilla Dilettoso Mix, gradually. Mix well, using a fork, to break apart any clumps of dry mix or cheese. If needed, add more Va Vanilla Dilettoso Mix: the right consistency is more like a dough, not like traditional pancake batter.
  3. SCOOP out a small amount of pancake dough, and using your hands, flatten the dough into a small, thick patty.
  4. DREDGE the pancake with extra Va Vanilla Dilettoso Mix, on both sides. Shake off the extra dry mix, and set aside until you are ready to cook the syrniki pancakes.
  5. HEAT & GREASE a pan. Once hot, cook syrniki pancakes over medium heat on both sides, until each side is golden brown.
  6. SERVE with jam, maple syrup, honey, yogurt and fresh fruits.

Did you know?

The name of this dish is derived from the three lettered word ‘syr’, which means cheese in both Russian as well as Ukrainian. Though, these days ‘syr’ means hard yellow cheese, in the early days it actually meant soft white cheese, and the Syrniki recipe gets its name from the usage of this soft cheese.
