Add 1 egg yolk, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the blended cheese and mix well.

Add 1/4 cup flour to the mixture and combine until smooth.

Use a little flour on the surface of the board to prevent sticking.

Shape the mixture into pancakes using your hands, flipping them over to coat both sides in flour.

Use a cup to create a smooth round shape for the pancakes, smoothing out the edges.

Heat coconut oil in a pan over medium heat.

Fry the pancakes in the coconut oil, covering the pan with a lid to help them cook evenly inside.

Flip the pancakes over and fry the other side until golden brown.
