Classic cottage cheese pancakes in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to fry classic fluffy cottage cheese pancakes in a frying pan? Prepare all the necessary products. The key to delicious cheesecakes is high-quality cottage cheese. Be sure to take natural cottage cheese without a milk fat substitute. In my opinion, cheesecakes made from fattier cottage cheese (9-18%) are tastier. I prefer to fry cheesecakes in any vegetable oil, but you can also fry them in butter or ghee.

2. STEP 2

   

   Mash the cottage cheese with a fork. Look at the consistency of the cottage cheese: if it seems to have grains, then it would be best to rub it through a fine sieve or punch it with a submersible blender, then the texture of the cottage cheese will become more uniform.

3. STEP 3

   

   Beat an egg into the cottage cheese. Before use, wash the egg with a cleaning agent in running water, as there may be harmful bacteria on its surface.

4. STEP 4

   

   Mix everything well with a fork.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add salt and stir again.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add sugar. I use regular white sugar, but you can also use brown sugar, it will give the cheesecakes a caramel flavor. Also at this stage you can add vanilla or vanilla sugar, as well as cinnamon, to the dough.

7. STEP 7

   

   Sift the flour (reserve 1 tablespoon of flour for breading). I recommend not neglecting this process, since during sifting the flour is saturated with oxygen, and the finished cheesecakes will be more airy and tender. Add flour to cottage cheese and mix everything well.

8. STEP 8

   

   Take some dough and form a small cake.

9. STEP 9

   

   Roll the future cheesecake on all sides in the remaining flour. Use all the dough this way.

10. STEP 10

    

    Heat the oil well in a frying pan. Place the cheesecakes and cook over low heat for about 7 minutes on one side.

11. STEP 11

    

    Then carefully turn the cheesecakes over and cook for 7-10 minutes. You can cover the pan with a lid and bring the cheesecakes until fully cooked so that the middle is also baked.

12. STEP 12

    

    Serve fluffy cheesecakes for breakfast, afternoon snack, or just for tea. Bon appetit!

It turned out very tasty!!! Delicate cheesecakes! I prepared them without sugar at all, sprinkled them with cinnamon and cocoa - mmmmmm my favorite taste!!! For hot cheesecakes I suggest jam, berries, sour cream with mint and frozen whipped cream, they thaw, it turns out an excellent topping, plus it looks interesting. True, disappear from the table instantly) Thanks for the recipe and for the details about the frying process - useful!!

Thank you! All my life I’ve been “suffering” with the proportions of flour and cottage cheese and cooking just maybe... Well, it’s either tasty, but there’s a risk that it will spread in the pan, or it’s beautiful, but rather like a pancake with the taste of cottage cheese. Thank you, I’m taking the proportions of your recipe into account.

Wonderful cheesecakes! And mine almost always blur. Maybe cottage cheese is to blame? Lately I’ve been adding semolina and it’s gotten better. I will definitely try your recipe. Thank you
