Let the batter rest until bubbles form.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Pour a small amount of batter onto the skillet, cooking until one side is lace-like and the other is bubbly.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Prepare the walnut filling by mixing rough chopped walnuts, cinnamon, and sugar in a bowl.

Fill each pancake with the walnut or cheese filling, folding to form a half-circle and sealing the edges.

Fry the filled pancakes in hot oil until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Drain on paper towels and drizzle with sugar syrup before serving.
