• Kefir - 1 glass
• Thick cherry jam - 0.5 cup
• Eggs - 2 pcs.
• Sugar - 1 cup
• Vanilla sugar - 8 g
• Butter - 50 g
• Vegetable oil - 50 g
• Soda - 0.5 tsp
• Walnuts - 40 g

Directions

1. In a bowl, combine eggs, sugar and vanilla sugar.

6. Beat the ingredients with a mixer for 10 seconds.
7. Pour the sifted flour and baking soda into the resulting dough base. There is no need to extinguish soda.
8. Knead the dough, add walnuts, crushed to medium-sized crumbs. You can also add ground cinnamon if you like, I didn't.
9. Stir the nuts into the batter with a spatula. The finished dough is similar in consistency to dough for pancakes.
