Tofu cheesecakes on rice flour
2 servings
20 minutes
Tofu pancakes made with rice flour are a delicate, light, and healthy dish inspired by traditional Russian cuisine. This version of pancakes is perfect for those following a plant-based diet or looking for an alternative to classic recipes. The creamy softness is replaced by the airy texture of tofu, which combined with banana adds pleasant sweetness without extra sugar. Rice flour makes the texture especially soft, while cinnamon adds warm spicy notes. These pancakes are great for breakfast or a light snack, especially when served with fruits, nuts, or yogurt. The simplicity of preparation and natural ingredients make them an excellent choice for health food enthusiasts. Fried to a golden crust, they are pleasantly crispy on the outside while remaining tender inside, creating a perfect balance of flavor and texture.
