Ingredients
- 200 grams Cottage Cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 60 grams Almond Flour
- 2 tablespoons Erythritol Sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese and mash it with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Step 2
Add the egg to the mashed cottage cheese and mix until well combined.
Step 3
Stir in the almond flour, erythritol sweetener, vanilla extract, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a thick batter forms.
Step 4
Divide the batter into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about 1 cm thick.
Step 5
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted and hot, gently place the syrniki patties in the skillet.
Step 6
Cook for about 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
Step 7
Remove the cooked syrniki from the skillet and repeat with the remaining butter and batter until all patties are cooked.
Step 8
Serve warm with your choice of low-carb toppings such as sour cream, fresh berries, or sugar-free syrup.
