In a large bowl, stir together farmer's cheese, eggs, sugar, vanilla, salt, and flour.

Pour 1/2 inch oil into a 10-12 inch frying pan (with sides at least 1 1/2 inches high) over medium-low to medium heat. 

When oil reaches 300 degrees F, scoop 1/4 cup of cheese mixture from bowl, then gently drop it into hot oil. Press down lightly with a spatula to flatten. Cook 3 or 4 pancakes at a time (do not crowd pan), loosening from bottom as needed, until undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. 

Gently turn and cook until other sides are golden brown, about 1-2 minutes longer.

Transfer to paper towels to drain briefly, then keep warm in a 200 degree F oven while you cook remaining pancakes. 

Serve hot, with maple syrup, sour cherry preserves and/or cinnamon sugar.
