Sweet twaróg with vanilla

A very unusual breakfast today. Pancakes. Unusual because Ninka isn’t here, and she’s the pancake lover. I’m not particularly keen, but today I somehow felt like them. Especially since yesterday I bought some very decent organic-or-rococo semi-fat twaróg cheese.

Actually, I was already craving those pancakes yesterday. Today was just about making it happen. Ninka basically only eats them with Nutella and various fruits (mainly strawberries, blueberries or pear), never with twaróg, even as sweet as today’s. So I could indulge in this accompaniment.

It turned out rather well. I was afraid I’d overcomplicated it. What with honey, banana and vanilla. But no, the combination was quite neat. Of course, as usual with me, not very photogenic, but there we are. I’d done quite enough work anyway, so once it was ready, all I could think about was eating it. Because today is a special day of idleness for me. I recommend it. Yes, a lazy day now and then, absolutely. And of course this rather lovely cheese mixture too, which my little daughter won’t like, admittedly, but I think other children certainly will.

Ingredients for sweet twaróg:

• 15 dag of semi-fat twaróg cheese
• 1 banana
• 1 vanilla pod
• 25 blueberries
• 4 teaspoons of honey
• 3 tablespoons of 12% sour cream

Recipe for a cheese mixture to serve with pancakes:

I mashed the twaróg in a bowl and added the sour cream. I mixed it together. I mashed the banana to a pulp (with a fork in a little bowl) and added it to the cheese. I added 4 tablespoons of honey and mixed thoroughly.

I split the vanilla pod in half and scraped out all the seeds with a knife. I added them to the cheese mixture and tipped in the blueberries. I mixed thoroughly. I covered the bowl with aluminium foil and put it in the fridge for 10 minutes to let the flavours mingle (you can use that time to make the pancakes). Enjoy!
