Tip! You can bake potato slapjacks as well. You will need to grease the baking sheet with butter or fat and place the pancakes there. Cook them in the beforehand preheated oven (to 250-280°C).

You may also add some special taste to the dish if you use dill, parsley or coriander. Simply include them in the filling and therefore you will give the dish more “summer” taste and unusual flavor.
