Lemon Syrniki
Description
Cottage cheese pancakes with light citrus notes. Fluffy and tender, yet they hold their shape well and do not spread out in the pan. These pancakes can be served on their own or with various toppings: sour cream, honey, sweetened condensed milk, jam, or preserves. You can use absolutely any cottage cheese.
