Latvian Cottage Cheese Pancakes (Biezpiena Placenisi) image

This is my adaptation of a common Latvian dish. It was a common breakfast or lunch dish in Latvia. It was topped with a little butter and honey. My kids like to put maple syrup on instead. I almost always double the recipe because it is easy to reheat for a quick snack.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup cottage cheese
½ cup raisins

Steps:

  • Mix together cottage cheese, raisins, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Add flour slowly, mixing until incorporated and batter is very thick.
