Ingredients
- Cottage cheese 5% 300 g
- Eggs 1 pcs
- Semolina 3 tbsp
- Sugar 2 tbsp
- Baking powder 1 tsp
- Bread-making wheat flour 2 tbsp
For serving
- Yogurt to taste
Directions
Step 1
Sift the flour. Prepare the air fryer.
Step 2
Mash the cottage cheese with a fork or press through a sieve. Break an egg into it.
Step 3
Add the semolina, sugar, and baking powder to the bowl with the cottage cheese. Mix well. Leave for 30 minutes for the semolina to swell.
TipAt this stage, you can also add various mix-ins to the cottage cheese dough: raisins, chopped nuts, candied fruits, berries, or cinnamon.
Step 4
Form the cottage cheese dough into syrniki, cover with a glass, and twist to make the edges of the patties even.
Step 5
Roll the syrniki in flour and place them in the air fryer basket lined with parchment. Set the temperature to 180 °C and bake for 25 minutes. After 15 minutes from the start of cooking, flip the patties.
TipKeep in mind that air fryers differ not only in brand and model but also in power, so the cooking time is approximate. Check the syrniki for doneness during baking.
Step 6
Place the syrniki on a serving plate and serve with sour cream or yogurt.
