Ingredients
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
- 300 ml skim milk
- 2 units egg whites
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 200 grams low-fat tvaroh or quark cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
Step 2
Gradually add the skim milk and continually whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
Step 3
Add the egg whites and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the batter, whisking until fully incorporated.
Step 4
Lightly grease a non-stick skillet with a small amount of vegetable oil and place it over medium heat.
Step 5
Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet, swirling it around to cover the base evenly.
Step 6
Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to lift and the underside is slightly golden.
Step 7
Carefully flip the palacinka and cook for another minute until both sides are golden. Repeat with the remaining batter, setting each cooked palacinka aside.
Step 8
In a separate bowl, mix the low-fat tvaroh (or quark cheese) with honey, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
Step 9
Spread a portion of the tvaroh mixture on one half of each cooked palacinka.
Step 10
Fold the palacinka over the filling, and then fold again to create quarter triangles.
Step 11
Serve warm, optionally garnishing with a drizzle of honey and a sprinkle of lemon zest.
