Cottage Cheese Pancakes with Apple Without Flour
Description
Choose cottage cheese for syrniki that is fresh, dense, and not watery. If the cottage cheese still contains a lot of liquid, place it in a sieve lined with a paper towel and a single layer of cheesecloth, and let it sit until it reaches the desired consistency. Semolina can be replaced with quick-cooking flakes or oat flour. The apple should not be too juicy, or squeeze it after grating.
