Ricotta Cheese or Tvorog Pancakes

I make these pancakes for my kids all the time.  I grew up eating then as a kid.  It is one of the traditional Russian breakfast treats, called syrnik. They are tender and juicy and are more nutritious than regular pancakes.  Perfect delicious breakfast.

ingredients:
16 oz  or ricotta cheese or Russian tvorog (fresh farmer’s cheese)
2 eggs
1/2 cup four
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla

Mix eggs, sugar, salt and vanilla together in a small bowl.  Add the mixture to the cheese and mix everything together using electric mixer or a food processor until the substance is uniform.
