Fluffy pancakes made with whey are a traditional dish of Ukrainian cuisine that impresses with its simplicity and airy texture. Historically, they were prepared in rural homes using accessible ingredients to create a nutritious and hearty breakfast. The pancakes are tender with a slight tang from the whey that makes the batter especially soft. Sugar adds a light sweetness, while the golden crust from frying makes them appetizing. They pair excellently with jam, honey or sour cream, turning an ordinary morning meal into a true gastronomic celebration. They are quick to prepare when you crave something homely and cozy. Suitable for both family breakfasts and entertaining guests as their taste evokes memories of childhood and the warmth of home.
