Fluffy Cottage Cheese Pancakes
Tender cottage cheese pancakes with a crispy crust are the perfect breakfast. The secret to success lies in dry cottage cheese and the correct batter consistency. Cottage cheese sifted through a sieve guarantees a uniform texture and prevents falling apart during frying. The pancakes are fried in oil until golden, then finished cooking in the oven.
