Cheese pancakes are very fast and very easy to do. The only hassle with this recipe can be to find good quark-kind fresh cheese. So try Russian, Ukrainian or Polish shop if you can’t locate it local supermarket.

These were absolutely heavenly, but I ended up adding at least twice as much flour as you suggested to get the “look” you have. We can’t wait until the tvorg arrives in our EU market again, so I can make more!
Yep, amount of flour may differ depend of how liquid the fresh cheese is. And good tvorog it is hard to find here ins US… I am thinking to try to make some myself, found where to get good milk already… Just need to a small kick to try it
Yum-Yum! I just made these for breakfast today and they were delicious. I made my own cottage cheese from whole milk (we can get it here in France!) and then also added a dash of vanilla sugar. Thanks again and do you have some other recipes with cottage cheese?…:) Have a wonderful week-end!
I am planning to attempt to make fresh cheese myself one day too
); vanilla sugar is great addition as well!

Thank you Julia !!! And if I were to make a cheesecake with raisins or cranberries, how much should I put ?
I would put about half of cup or less, but this is up to taste I think.
