Cottage cheese pancakes with semolina flour are a true embodiment of coziness and home warmth. This classic recipe from Ukrainian cuisine is passed down through generations, delighting with its tenderness and lightness. Semolina flour gives the pancakes lightness and softness, while the cottage cheese provides a rich creamy flavor with a slight tang. Fried to a golden crust, they are crispy on the outside and remain soft on the inside. They can be served with thick sour cream, sweet jam, or chocolate glaze, while fresh berries and powdered sugar add a touch of sophistication. These pancakes are perfect for cozy breakfasts or family tea gatherings, filling the home with aromas of childhood and joy.
