Are you ready to treat yourself to cottage cheese, but there are no eggs in the fridge? There is no reason for sadness. Making cheesecakes without eggs from cottage cheese does not mean that they will fall apart and lose their delicious fluffiness. It doesn’t matter whether they are made from homemade or store-bought low-fat cottage cheese, the cottage cheese cakes will turn out fluffy, airy, and incredibly tasty. In addition to the classic recipe, there are cooking options with semolina and banana.
Many people try to make the dish without flour in order to make the cheesecakes completely dietary and suitable for proper nutrition. All proposed recipes will be appreciated by people who are vegetarians and who refuse eggs.
Classic cottage cheese pancakes without eggs in a frying pan
If desired, you can add raisins, apples, and sprinkle a little cinnamon into the dough. Based on this recipe, I often fry cheesecakes with chocolate inside . Don't know how? Go to another page of the site.
Take:
- Cottage cheese – 400 gr.
- Flour – 1-3 tablespoons depending on the moisture content of the product.
- Granulated sugar - a large spoon.
- Salt - a third of a teaspoon.
- Oil for frying.
Recipe with photos step by step
Pour the cottage cheese into a bowl, knead it so that the grains of the granular mass disappear. Personally, I like some of the grains to remain, so I don’t try too hard - it’s a matter of taste.
Immediately add salt and sugar. You can add more sugar to suit your taste. But keep in mind that you will then have to add more flour. And this affects the tenderness of the cheesecakes.
Add flour to the dough, continue kneading the contents until you get a homogeneous thick mass. The amount of flour is very arbitrary, since it depends on the moisture content of the cottage cheese (the wetter the structure, the more it will take).
First, mix with a spoon in a bowl, then transfer the mixture to a floured work surface. Continue working with your hands, gradually making a dough ball first, then rolling it out into a long, thick sausage. Diameter approximately 5-6 cm.
Cut the rope into pieces and shape them into a pancake.
Make a breading from flour.
Fry in oil, heating it thoroughly. Don't miss the moment when you need to turn the cakes over, otherwise they will burn, as in the photo above.
Cooking recipes:
The resulting cheesecakes are plump, dense, neat - they don’t even think about falling apart. You can fry cheesecakes without eggs with flour or with semolina, whichever comes to hand first - both are very tasty.

- 50–100 g raisins or dried apricots;
- Refined vegetable oil.
Cooking method:
Knead the curd in a bowl with your hands. Add sugar and vanilla, salt, mix. We do not add all the flour at once, but gradually, since, depending on the moisture content of the cottage cheese, you may need from 100 to 150 g of flour. You don’t need to add a lot so that the curd dough doesn’t turn out too hard: when you can form a lump that practically doesn’t stick to your hands, add enough.
Along with the last portion of flour, add washed and dried raisins. Knead the dough well with your hands. Divide the curd mass into pieces and, wetting your hands in water, roll into balls. Press each ball and roll in flour.
Meanwhile, the pan is heating up well. You need to place the cheesecakes in a hot frying pan so that the crust immediately sets on them, and then you can reduce the heat so that the middle is fried.
First, over medium-high heat for a minute, then cover with a lid and another 2-3 minutes over low-medium heat until the bottom side becomes golden brown. Turning the cheesecakes over with a fork, fry without a lid, on the other side, until golden or brown. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly. Serve with sour cream, honey or jam!

STRAWBERRY CHEESE CAKE WITHOUT COOKING COOK
In this video, a cheesecake is made from cottage cheese with strawberries, but in fact, you can use any berries: blueberries, raspberries, peaches, etc. The recipe, without eggs or gelatin, is completely vegetarian. In the video, Chanterelle bakes the crust, but you can use cookies for the base. Be sure to watch the video - there are a couple of secrets on how to whip cream correctly.
To make no-bake strawberry cheesecake we will need:
Base: 50g sugar, 100g butter, 150g flour, pinch of salt, 1 tbsp water.
Mix all ingredients and knead the dough. Place it in a thin layer on the bottom of the mold, make a small side, and prick with a fork in several places. Bake at 200 degrees for 15-20 minutes.

Place some of the whole berries on the cooled base, having previously greased the sides of the mold with oil or lined it with baking paper. Pour the curd and cream mixture over the berries. Place in the refrigerator to harden. Decorate the top to your taste.

Forming and frying products in a frying pan
How should you form cheesecakes without eggs? The recipe for this dessert requires the use of a large board. The “rested” dough is placed on it, and then kneaded again and rolled into a thick sausage. After cutting the product into circles 1.5 centimeters thick, they are given a more rounded shape and begin frying.
Where should you fry cottage cheese pancakes without eggs? The recipe for this delicacy recommends using a cast iron frying pan. A sufficient amount of vegetable oil (about ½ cup) is poured into it, and then all the semi-finished products are laid out one by one.
After the bottom side of the cheesecakes turns red, they are turned over with a fork and fried for the same amount of time.
As soon as the products are ready, they are taken out, and a new batch of semi-finished products is placed in the frying pan. They are fried exactly the same way.
Some tips
If the curd mass is too liquid, add a little starch rather than flour, which many people do. The wheat product will make the tortillas tough.
- Do not add a lot of sugar, it will liquefy the curd. If you like sweet desserts, it’s better to sprinkle the finished cakes with powder.
- Many people don't like sweet cheesecakes. In this case, I recommend adding mushrooms, boiled potatoes, and sausages.
- For sweet fillings, you can use any berries – raspberries, cherries. Fruits are an excellent filler - bananas, apples, prunes, pears.

What to use in salads, baked goods and cutlets instead of eggs
How to replace eggs in cutlets and casseroles?
The strongest cutlets are obtained by adding rice. When frying, let the cutlet brown well and only then turn it over. This rule applies to any cutlets - rice, vegetables, and legumes.
- Flour - 3 tbsp.
instead of 1 egg, add zucchini or other juicy vegetables to cutlets so that the cutlet holds its shape. In addition to the usual wheat flour, chickpea or soy flour are perfect. If the vegetable mince turns out to be very watery, add a spoon or two of starch (corn or potato). - Lentils, beans or other legumes - about 60 g instead of 1 egg
Boil any legumes until fully or half cooked. Cook the beans until fully cooked; raw beans are dangerous for the body! Great for cutlets made from buckwheat, rice or other cereals. Legumes are good in cutlets and as an independent ingredient. - Semolina - 3 tbsp.
instead of 1 egg Often used in vegetable cutlets, such as beet cutlets. - Raw potatoes - 1 medium potato instead of 1 egg
Grate a medium potato and add to the minced meat. - Mashed potatoes - about 60 g instead of 1 egg
If you have some mashed potatoes left, add it to future cutlets. If necessary, mix the puree with a little water. - Oatmeal - 1 tbsp.
instead of 1 egg Oatmeal will work great in cutlets, as well as in baked goods. Fill them with warm water for 15 minutes and add to the minced meat. - Rice - 4 tbsp.
instead of 1 egg Boiled rice holds any cutlets perfectly. Especially round grain. Just add more water when cooking it - 2.5 parts or even 3 if you use fluffy rice. Don't overcook it! Rice turned into paste is completely tasteless and will not bring any benefit. It is better not to use brown rice as a binder in cutlets.
Why are eggs in baked goods and cutlets?
Today there are excellent plant-based egg substitutes that are not inferior to them not only in taste, but also in appearance. Unfortunately, such vegan eggs are almost never represented in Russia and are distributed mainly only throughout Europe and the USA. But there is no need to come up with a replacement; for baked goods, casseroles, cutlets and even salads, there are already many replacement options using simple (or not so simple) ingredients.
In baking and frying cutlets (and cheesecakes), there are only four options in which eggs are used. We'll look at them all.
- Binding Ingredients
As eggs heat up during preparation, they hold the ingredients together. The binding effect is necessary when making pies and cakes, cheesecakes and even cutlets. - Fluffy dough
Beating eggs helps baked goods not to fall and keeps the dough fluffy and airy (for example, sponge cake). - Moist Baking
Eggs in moist baking add fluffiness to the batter while still maintaining a moist effect (like the runny chocolate filling in a brownie). - Golden crust
Pies or other dough products are often brushed with eggs before going into the oven to get a golden brown crust.
Forming and frying cheesecakes on the stove
Cottage cheese pancakes without eggs, the recipe for which we are considering, turn out to be quite satisfying. After the dough reaches the desired consistency, it is kneaded again and rolled into a sausage.
As in the previous recipe, the product is cut into circles and given a more rounded shape. Next, they are placed one by one in a hot frying pan with vegetable oil and fried on both sides until reddened.

Replacing eggs in salads
400w, 900w" width="622″ />
Tofu or Adyghe cheeses are very suitable for replacing eggs in salads. Cut them into bars or cubes and add to the salad. Indian black salt, which has a hydrogen sulfide flavor, will help give dishes the characteristic smell of boiled eggs.
