Delicate, thin crepes rolled around a sweet farmer's cheese filling with vanilla and raisins, pan-fried in butter until golden — Poland's beloved dessert crepe.

Ingredients

200g all-purpose flour
2 eggs
400ml milk
Pinch of salt
1 tbsp melted butter
400g twarog or ricotta
3 tbsp sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
50g raisins
Butter for frying
Powdered sugar and sour cream for serving
