Pancakes with milk with apples and cottage cheese

Let's prepare the cottage cheese. In general, the fat content of the product does not matter - the pancakes will still work out and will be tasty. But if the cottage cheese is fat, then the taste of the dough will be more creamy. Cottage cheese must be grated through a sieve or punch through with a blender - its consistency will become homogeneous, there will be no characteristic grains in the pancakes. Pour milk into the prepared cottage cheese, break the egg, add salt, granulated sugar. Melt the butter to a liquid state and pour it into the curd. Mix everything together with a spoon or a whisk to get a homogeneous mass.

Rinse the apples, dry them and cut them into quarters. Cut out the seed box. Cut the pulp into small pieces with a knife or rub on a coarse grater. If juice is released, drain it and do not use it in the dough.

Put the crushed apples into the previously prepared curd mass, mix.

Sift the flour and pour it into the curd-apple mass along with the baking powder. Knead the dough with a spoon or fork, achieving uniformity and breaking the flour lumps. The final consistency should turn out to be quite thick, future pancakes should keep their shape in the pan, and not creep.

Pour vegetable oil into the pan in such an amount that it covers the bottom with a thin layer. We heat the oil until hot. We spread the curd dough with apples with a tablespoon in hot butter, forming rounded pancakes. We lay out the products at a distance from each other, so that later it would be more convenient to turn them over. Fry pancakes on one side for a couple of minutes at medium-low stove temperature until golden brown. Then, with a thin spatula, turn the products over to the other side and continue to fry until the crust is browned from below. Do not set the stove temperature too high, as the curd dough will not have time to bake and will burn. Remove the finished pancakes from the pan and dry them on a paper towel to remove excess oil. Fry the rest of the dough similarly to the first portion of pancakes. We serve cottage cheese and apple pancakes traditionally with sour cream and honey.
