30 minutes

Whey pancakes are a simple and aromatic dish of Russian cuisine that stems from the folk traditions of economical food use. The whey left after making cottage cheese gives the pancakes a special tenderness and a slight sourness. They turn out airy, with crispy edges and rich flavor. The batter is quick to prepare, and frying these pancakes is a pleasure. They can be served with honey, sour cream, jam, or simply with a cup of hot tea. This dish is perfect for a cozy family breakfast or a light snack, preserving the spirit of home warmth and Russian culinary traditions.
