- Syrniki pancake shape: Prepare a small bowl with about a cup of flour - you will use it to dredge the pancakes.

- Cook the syrniki pancakes: In a large skillet, heat 3-4 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and gently place the floured cheese pancakes into the skillet using a spatula. Cook over medium-low heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown. Place on paper towels to cool. Do not overcrowd the pancakes - cook in 2-3 batches if necessary.
- To serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or drizzle with maple syrup, honey, whipped cream. Or try these syrniki the traditional Russian way - with sour cream and your favorite candied fruit.
