Racuszki are a type of pancake prepared from a batter that is fried on a hot griddle or a pan. They are a traditional Polish meal, however they exist in several variations in many different local cuisines, such as for example Danish [1]. The variations are based mainly on the form of the fried racuszki (as little pancakes or like donuts) or by the additions: apple&cinnamon, or raisins etc.
