Ingredients

• 400g Farmer's cheese
• 2 large Eggs
• 100g All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
• A pinch Salt
• As needed Vegetable oil or butter (for frying)
• Optional Powdered sugar (for dusting)
• To taste Sour cream, jam, or honey (for serving)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the farmer's cheese, eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.

2. 2

   In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

3. 3

   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the cheese mixture, stirring gently to combine. The dough should be soft but not too sticky.

4. 4

   Dust a clean surface with flour. Divide the dough into small portions and shape them into round patties, about 1 cm thick.

5. 5

   Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a small amount of vegetable oil or butter.

6. 6

   Fry each Syrnyky for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

7. 7

   Once cooked, transfer the Syrnyky to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

8. 8

   Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar and a side of sour cream, jam, or honey.
