Nalistniki with cottage cheese and banana

4 servings

120 minutes

Cottage cheese and banana nalistniki are tender and aromatic pancakes filled with juicy cottage cheese-banana filling. This recipe is inspired by Russian cuisine, where pancakes hold a special place and are often made with various fillings. Cottage cheese adds softness and a slight tang to the filling, while banana adds sweetness and a velvety texture. The uniqueness of these nalistniki is their frying in breadcrumbs, creating an appetizing crispy crust. They are perfect for breakfast or dessert, especially when paired with sour cream, berries, or honey.
