🇺🇦 Ukraine recipe
Mlyntsi
Mlyntsi are paper-thin Ukrainian pancakes, the versatile workhorses of the Ukrainian kitchen. They can be rolled around sweet fillings like jam and cottage cheese for breakfast, or stuffed with savory ground meat and onions for dinner. The batter is a simple mixture of eggs, milk, flour, and a touch of butter, but the technique of swirling it into a gossamer-thin layer in a hot pan is what elevates mlyntsi from simple pancakes to elegant crepes worthy of any occasion.
