30 minutes
Lacy pancakes with Nutella® and berries are a refined treat that combines the tenderness of traditional Russian pancakes with the delightful sweetness of hazelnut-chocolate cream and the freshness of berries. These airy, thin pancakes acquire a lacy texture through a special cooking technique, making them light and delicate. Historically, pancakes hold an important place in Russian cuisine and are often served during Maslenitsa — the festival welcoming spring. Paired with Nutella®, they become a modern gastronomic delight where the rich flavor of hazelnuts and cocoa perfectly complements the soft layers of dough. Fresh berries add a note of sweet-tart freshness, making the dish balanced and appealing for both breakfast and cozy family tea time.
