nalesniki na drozdze

My grandmother used to make a wonderful raised pancake for Xmas Eve...she called it nalesniki na drozde. Is anyone familiar with this? I'd love to surprise my mom at Wigilia. It was certainly not thin like regular nalesniki,,,any help would be appreciated!

No idea...

Yeah, I suppose you mean placki drożdżowe or racuchy. They are made of:
wheat flour,
milk (lets say two glasses, you can replace half a glass of milk with water),
a yolk,
yeast (30grams I think),
a pinch of sugar...

I don't know the exact proportions, but the dough should be quite thick. First you have to mix yeast with warm milk (half a glass) and sugar and leave it in a warm place to swell. next add the rest of milk and yolk. finally add flour. deep fry in oil forming pancakes with about a 7 centimetre diameter. I cannot assure you the pankakes will taste like these made by your grandma but you can try this recipe and modify it:) for example you can add more sugar, less milk etc.

Thanks - this sounds about right - at least I can play with the ingredients and see what I come up with...I have a couple days to figure it out.

Maybe this might help I found it in a thread from a little while ago
