30 minutes
Cottage cheese pancakes with raisins are a cozy childhood memory from Russian cuisine. They are made without flour, giving them a special tenderness and lightness. Oat flakes and semolina create a pleasant texture, while sweet raisins add a light fruity note. These pancakes are a true harmony of flavors: the creamy richness of the cottage cheese combines with the subtle caramel hint of baked sugar. They are served hot, soft, and aromatic, sometimes with honey, sour cream, or berry jam. They are perfect for a leisurely breakfast or cozy tea time, creating an atmosphere of home warmth and comfort. The cooking is simple and accessible: minimal ingredients, ease of preparation, and maximum enjoyment. Each bite of these pancakes is a little joy that makes the day a bit brighter.

1
Mix cottage cheese and two eggs in a bowl, then add sugar.
- Cottage cheese 9%: 240 g
- Chicken egg: 2 pieces
- Sugar: 1 tablespoon
2
Add the oatmeal and semolina, and mix.
- Oat flakes: 4 tablespoons
- Semolina: 2 tablespoons
3
Add salt and baking powder.
- Salt: pinch
- Baking powder: 0.2 teaspoon
4
Rinse the raisins, pour boiling water over them, and add to the bowl.

5
Mix everything until smooth and place the pan on the heat, adding oil.
6
Take a tablespoon, scoop some dough into it, and simply drop it onto the pan, pushing it with another spoon or your finger.
7
Cover with a lid, reduce the heat to minimum, and keep the syrniki for about 5-6 minutes, then flip them to the other side, cover again, and cook for another 5 minutes. Then turn off the heat and leave the syrniki covered for a few more important minutes — they will soak up the steam and become even juicier.
