Serniczki

  • I remember these being made by Ciocia (aunty) Wanda in Białystok many years ago.
  • They are a little like pancakes(American style).
  • Ser is the Polish for cheese and in this case it means the white twaróg/strained yoghurt cheese.
  • I could not find the recipe which I am sure I jotted down.
  • In some ways it is similar to one I got in Holland and wrote up in Racuszck – a kind of pancake.
  • But I know hers just  used mostly cheese.
  • I looked around for a recipe and found this one.
  • They came out well.
  • I served them with cranberry & apple jam sauce.
  • But you could try them serve with icing sugar, honey or fresh fruit.
