Recipe for making thick pancakes with kefir. Thick pancakes with kefir

In the old days, thick and fluffy pancakes were baked in a Russian oven, filling the whole house with an appetizing aroma.

Nowadays, the recipe has been somewhat simplified, and our grandmothers’ thick Russian pancakes can be baked without much effort in a regular frying pan by preparing the dough with kefir.

Kefir pancakes turn out very fluffy, tasty and literally melt in your mouth.

What exactly is good about pancakes cooked with kefir? Most importantly, they do not contain yeast, which is important for people watching their figure. The recipe for such pancakes implies a non-steamed method of preparation, purely based on fermented lactic bacteria, which in its properties in baking completely replaces yeast. The advantage of such kefir pancakes is their low calorie content, which is indispensable for dietary nutrition.

Classic recipe for pancakes with kefir

Required ingredients:

4 cups low-fat kefir, 3 chicken eggs (can be replaced with 4 quail eggs, which will make the pancakes more elastic and full of vitamins), 3 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of soda, about two cups of wheat flour, half a teaspoon of salt

Cooking method:

According to this simple traditional recipe, eggs are thoroughly ground with sugar and salt until white. This can be done with a mixer or a regular whisk. In a separate bowl, pour soda into kefir and mix. In this case, quenching with vinegar is not required, since, due to its acidity, kefir itself acts as an alkali neutralizer. The kefir mixture and soda are allowed to react for several minutes until foam appears.

Next, the beaten eggs are combined with kefir and flour is added with continuous stirring. You will need about two cups of flour, but this measure is inaccurate, since the thickness of the mass is determined as the dough is mixed and, based on this, the required amount of flour is added. The consistency of the pancake dough should be like medium-thick sour cream, but in no case liquid.

Before baking, this dough is kept on kefir for about half an hour, and then baked in a hot frying pan, greased with butter or a piece of lard. Kefir pancakes are very fragile, and therefore a wide spatula is used to remove them from the pan.

Yeast pancakes with kefir

For those who like fluffier and thicker pancakes, a recipe using yeast is suitable, although this will slightly increase the calorie content of the dish. This recipe can be considered originally Russian, except that in the old days they used not kefir, but sour milk. But nevertheless, the principle of kneading dough and cooking is identical.

Required ingredients:

1 glass of low-fat kefir, 250 g of wheat flour, 40 g of butter, 25 g of yeast, 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar and a pinch of salt

Cooking method:

The yeast is poured with warm kefir and left for about twenty minutes to “bloom”. Meanwhile, eggs are ground with sugar and butter. To make the pancakes thicker, fluffier and more tender, you can use ghee. When the yeast in the kefir dissolves, you need to add the egg mass and mix everything. Next, add flour with constant stirring until it becomes semi-thick sour cream. The resulting dough is salted to taste and kept for about an hour in a warm place so that the dough rises. These pancakes are baked in a frying pan, preferably in butter, which will give the final dish a special rich aroma.

Oat pancakes with starch

The recipe for pancakes with oatmeal is also simple to make and available in the required quantity of products. These pancakes differ from wheat pancakes in that they have an unusual taste and some crispiness. They are also thick and lush, but more fragile.

Required ingredients:

2 cups oatmeal, 2 chicken eggs, 50 ml olive oil, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 4 tablespoons sugar, 3 cups kefir and salt to taste

Cooking method:

So, why is starch added to pancakes? In this case, this complex carbohydrate acts as a thickener and binder for the dough, because oatmeal, as mentioned above, makes baked goods brittle, and elasticity is necessary for good pancakes. In addition, by adding starch, you can significantly reduce the amount of harmful carbohydrates such as animal oils. Starch will make the lean dough more fluffy and loose, which will affect the taste.

As with all the recipes described above, the method of preparing oat pancakes is almost identical to them. The eggs are beaten with sugar. But in this case, it is not butter that is added, but olive oil. For what - it will become clear a little later. Kefir is mixed with soda and left until foam forms. Flour is mixed with dry starch. Then everything is combined and left for about half an hour, salt is added to taste.

But the baking process is already different from the previous ones and more convenient. The previously added olive oil eliminates the need to grease the pan for each new pancake. The frying pan is coated only for the first time. And then the dough with added oil no longer sticks when frying. This method does not make the pancakes more fatty, since all the added oil is fried almost completely. You can use this culinary trick when baking absolutely any pancakes using a wide variety of recipes.

Nutritional value of kefir pancakes

For some reason, there is an opinion that any pancakes are extremely high in calories and harmful to the figure. Probably, this opinion was formed due to the traditions of Maslenitsa week, when pancakes are enjoyed every day and in different variations of preparation, with various fillings and simply greased with butter. Of course, eating rich pancakes with condensed milk and butter, it’s no wonder you gain excess weight. But if we take the traditional recipes described here as a basis and calculate the energy value of these pancakes, then there is absolutely no reason to panic.

Taking into account the eggs, kefir, flour, sugar and a small amount of butter included in these recipes, the average calorie content of kefir pancakes is about 200 kcal/100 g of the finished product. This is approximately the same calorie content as a bowl of cereal with milk for breakfast or a sausage sandwich. This is also the amount of calories contained in two muffins or one small 45-gram chocolate bar. Three boiled eggs also contain exactly 200 kcal.

Based on these data, we can conclude that thick, fluffy and tasty pancakes with kefir dough are no more harmful to the figure than many other breakfasts and lunches that are familiar to everyone. And therefore, you should not deny yourself and your loved ones the pleasure of periodically tasting golden-brown pancakes.

Pancakes occupy one of the first places in the cuisines of many countries. And the history of the creation and appearance of the first pancake is shrouded in mystery. All we can say for sure is that this is a Russian dish, although many dispute this opinion. But be that as it may, everyone loves pancakes.

Pancakes are especially prepared during Maslenitsa. For a whole week they are baked using a wide variety of recipes and methods. Particularly popular are the recipes for which we discussed in the previous article.

And today’s episode is dedicated to equally delicious pancakes made with kefir. It would seem that, knowing, you can safely take on baking them. But it was not there. Each recipe always has its own peculiarity, a twist, so to speak, that makes each recipe special.

In addition to everything, there are so many recipes that a lifetime would not be enough to cook them all, even if you baked every day.

Today we will consider only a small part of how you can bake pancakes not only for holidays, but also on ordinary days. For example, an excellent solution would be to cook and serve them with some jam or, as usual, sour cream. It’s so tasty, and also filling!

And if you think that this is not easy, because you will need to get up very early to knead the dough, then I can tell you this: - You are mistaken. Because the dough can be kneaded in the evening and put in the refrigerator until the morning. Nothing will happen to it, and all you have to do is cook them.

Thin pancakes with holes

Not everyone can make beautiful openwork and, at the same time, thin pancakes with a hole. The thing is that the proportions given in the recipe are not always observed correctly. Or it also happens that the recipe itself was not very successful.

To avoid disappointment from the result obtained, you need to do everything completely and exactly as described in the recipe below. And you will see that baking beautiful and tasty pancakes is not such an impossible task. Shall we try?

Ingredients:

1.5 tbsp. flour
1 tbsp. kefir
1 tbsp. boiling water
2 eggs
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
1/4 tsp. tea soda
1/4 tsp. salt
3 tsp granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla sugar

Preparation:

1. Pour tea soda into the pre-sifted flour and mix.

2. Break the eggs into a separate bowl. Add salt, sugar and vanilla sugar.

You can add a little more sugar if desired, but don't overdo it. A large amount of sugar in the dough causes the pancakes to stick to the pan.

3. Using a whisk, mix the ingredients well until the sugar dissolves.

4. Pour kefir into the egg-sugar mixture and stir until smooth.

5. Add flour and stir until lumps disappear.

Flour should be added gradually, in several stages. That is, they poured a little and mixed. Pour in a little more, mix and so on.

6. Gradually pour boiling water into the resulting dough (it should be a little thick), without ceasing to stir.

7. The final ingredient will be vegetable oil, which needs to be mixed with the pancake dough.

8. You can proceed directly to baking pancakes. For this:

grease the pan with a small amount of oil (vegetable or butter)

heat the frying pan until a faint smoke appears

holding the frying pan in one hand, with the other hand, using a ladle, pour in the dough and, with a sharp circular motion, evenly distribute all the dough over the frying pan

Advice! Try to put the same amount of batter into the ladle so that all your pancakes are the same size and thickness.

after the surface of the pancake becomes dry and the edges are browned, you can turn it over with a spatula and fry it on the other side

place the finished pancake on a plate and grease with a small amount of vegetable oil

9. Repeat the baking procedure with all the remaining dough.

That's the whole recipe for pancakes with kefir. For such a dough, they turn out to be very thin, tasty and delicate, and also with holes. Bon appetit!

4. Now add the second part of kefir and mix until smooth.

As a result of these manipulations, not a single lump should remain in the dough.

5. And lastly, we need to add vegetable oil.

The dough should be a little thick, but a little thinner than for pancakes.

6. In a dry and well-heated frying pan, bake pancakes on both sides over low heat.

Each time, before scooping the dough into the ladle, do not forget to stir it.

7. Pour the dough at a right angle directly into the frying pan standing on the fire. If necessary, level with the same ladle.

This recipe yields 12-15 pancakes, depending on what size you make them. Now you know what kind of fluffy pancakes you get. Prepare for your health!

Custard pancakes on kefir with boiling water

Custard pancakes involve the use of boiling water or hot milk. You can cook it either way, as you like. But if you are making pancakes with kefir using the custard method, it is better to use hot water rather than milk.

At least that’s what I was taught and I’m used to doing them this way. I am always pleased with the result and I hope that you will also enjoy the baked goods prepared this way. This means that to prepare delicious pancakes with kefir and boiling water we need the following:

Ingredients:

kefir - 400 ml.
flour - 300 gr.
eggs - 2 pcs.
boiling water - 200 ml.
sunflower oil - 30 gr.
a pinch of salt
sugar - 100 gr.
tea soda - 0.5 tsp.

Preparation:

1. Pour salt and sugar into a bowl with eggs. Beat everything well with a regular whisk.

2. Add kefir and beat again.

As a result, you should get a homogeneous mass, which we put aside for a while.

3. Pour tea soda into boiling water and stir until dissolved.

4. Pour this water into the egg mass and mix thoroughly again for about 5 minutes.

5. Pour in vegetable oil and start adding flour.

As you probably remember, add flour in small portions, constantly stirring the dough.

The finished dough should be homogeneous, without lumps and slightly liquid. Not like water, of course, but it should still be quite liquid.

6. Let's start baking. Grease a pancake pan with a small amount of oil and heat thoroughly over moderate heat.

I described how to pour the dough into a frying pan above, so I won’t repeat myself, but will simply say that we need to bake each pancake well on both sides. Each side takes approximately 1.5-2 minutes.

That's all. There is nothing complicated. It takes very little time to prepare such a dough. And baking itself is also not a long process. Once you get the hang of it, you can bake pancakes in several pans at the same time, but this is a completely different level of skill...

How to cook fluffy pancakes

A little higher, we looked at the recipe for making thick or, as they also say, fluffy pancakes. That's what we call them. But in England and America they are called a little differently, namely pancakes.

These are most likely not even pancakes, but something like our pancakes. The only thing that distinguishes them is that the pancakes are cooked in a dry frying pan and are less greasy. This will appeal to those who watch their figure and health.

Recipe for pancakes with kefir and milk:

Kefir pancakes are fluffy, tasty, piping hot, with honey, syrup, jam, marmalade, sour cream, condensed milk. Some people like unleavened ones, with caviar, fish, spicy cheese, herbs and eggs. Their recipe appeared a long time ago; few people remember the purpose of this dish. Along with pancakes, pancakes, crumpets, delicious pancakes are made from sour yeast-free dough, then small portions are fried in hot oil and eaten hot, so they are especially tasty. Kefir pancakes are fluffy, soft, airy - a traditional Russian recipe, the most successful of all existing ones.

Who doesn't love fluffy and soft pancakes? How to cook them correctly?

A simple recipe will be a super idea for every housewife. You can make fluffy kefir pancakes yourself in an hour - during this time you will have time to knead the dough, bake the flatbreads, and your loved ones will eat them. Having learned how to bake according to this recipe, you can easily prepare delicious pancakes with a variety of fillings. To prepare fluffy pancakes with kefir, you will need:

500 ml of kefir (preheat slightly).
1 egg.
2 tbsp. spoons of sugar.
Salt.
2.5 cups flour.
1 teaspoon of soda.
Vegetable oil for frying.

Stir the egg with a fork, pour warm kefir into it (you can take it out of the refrigerator ahead of time or warm it slightly in the microwave). Add sugar, flour, salt. Add baking soda, quenched with vinegar, to the dough, stir it thoroughly with a whisk or mixer. The mass should have the consistency of thick sour cream. Leave the mixture to stand for 15 minutes in a warm place.

To prepare pancakes, use a thick, heavy frying pan, heat it over high heat, pour in vegetable oil - it should cover the bottom of the pan (approximately 2 mm). Despite the numerous pancake makers and shaped frying pans, the best solution remains a cast iron frying pan. It should be used exclusively for baking pancakes, pancakes or donuts, so take care of the dishes from scrambled eggs and fried dumplings in your absence.

When the oil warms up, it starts to crackle, reduce the heat to not too low (if your stove has divisions, this is about 2 at 6 or 4 at 10 degrees of heating). Place the dough in a frying pan and fry on both sides until golden brown.

To remove excess oil, place the finished pancakes - each batch from the frying pan - first on a couple of folded paper towels or several napkins. Change them as they become oiled.

If not cooked through (this can happen if you are using thin-walled pans), cover the pan with a lid. When using a cast-iron frying pan, remember that you need to wash it, dry it with a towel, lightly grease it with vegetable oil - then the dishes will be better preserved, and your baked goods will not stick to the bottom, be it yeast pancakes or sweet pancakes.

Low-fat pear pancakes

Oven pancakes made with kefir turn out to be super dietary because they do not absorb a drop of oil. The recipe can be called energy-saving, since the oven bakes the pancakes itself. It is best to use a pear for the filling, as it makes the baked goods especially aromatic, but you can replace it with an apple, as well as pumpkin boiled in sugar syrup.

You can do without flour

For those who strictly watch their figure, you can offer delicious kefir pancakes that do not contain a single gram of flour. They are usually the most delicious for children, as they turn out tender but crispy at the same time. We invite you to please your family with amazing manna cakes, just keep in mind that the dough is prepared in advance, the recipe with photos is attached:

0.5 tsp. soda
A pinch of citric acid.
Oil for frying.

Beat the eggs with sugar and salt until foamy, then mix with warm kefir. Mix the mixture with semolina thoroughly until the lumps disappear, leave to swell for 2 hours at room temperature. After this time, pour soda and citric acid on top of the dough, and also pour a little kefir so that the soda dissipates faster. To fry fluffy pancakes, use a frying pan with a lid. Semolina attracts oil, so do not forget to blot the pancakes with napkins. Serve with sour cream mixed with jam.

Pancakes should be baked in a hot frying pan in vegetable oil.

Dish made from sour kefir

Sometimes it happens that a fermented milk product is stale, its expiration date has already expired, it’s too late. This product cannot be consumed in its pure form, but it can be used to prepare baked goods that will undergo heat treatment. Pancakes made with sour kefir are especially successful. They come out super fluffy and light as well as tender. There are some secrets to making good pancakes with expired fermented milk products:

Don't over-knead the flour as over-kneading will cause the baked goods to become flat.
The fluffiest pancakes are made from dough with the consistency of thick sour cream, so you need to take enough flour.
If you are kneading the dough using sour kefir, take it out of the refrigerator in advance so that it has time to warm up.
Pancakes made with kefir are especially porous due to the reaction of soda with the fermented milk product, so try not to use baking powder.

Recipe with expired kefir and banana:

1 glass – 200 ml kefir.
Soda 1 tsp.
Sugar 3 tbsp. l.
Salt - a pinch.
Egg 2 pcs.
Banana.
12 tbsp. l. flour.

Mix the eggs well with sugar and salt, add kefir, and then gradually add flour. Pour baking soda onto the surface of the dough and stir thoroughly with a spoon until bubbles form. Cut the banana into small pieces, add it to the dough and leave to “breathe” for 15–20 minutes. The secret of delicious banana pancakes is that it is better to take greenish fruit, since ripe and soft ones will give the dough a fermented taste. Fry according to the usual rules, 2 minutes on each side.

A trick for housewives - if you put the dough into a frying pan with a spoon, then you probably know how sticking in the flour mass interferes with the cooking process. Place a glass of water next to you and dip a spoon into it before each pancake. Just be careful and never use boiling water. This should be water at room temperature.

As you can see, you can please your family with wonderful baked goods simply, quickly and inexpensively.

Pancakes are an original Russian dish, and every good housewife should be able to cook them. They are usually prepared with milk, whey and even water.

But with kefir they turn out more fluffy and with a pleasant sourness. These are the ones that most people like.

This is the ingredient you need to use if you want to get beautiful openwork holes. You can bake both thick, fluffy pancakes and thin ones with kefir. I have collected the best and most varied recipes. Choose and cook exactly the ones you and your loved ones love.

Thin pancakes with holes made with kefir

According to this recipe, kefir pancakes turn out very tender, tasty and very thin for kefir dough.

Products:

1.5 cups flour,
1 glass of hot water or boiling water,
1 glass of kefir,
2 eggs,
1⁄4 teaspoon of soda,
1⁄4 teaspoon salt,
3 teaspoons sugar,
0.5 teaspoon vanilla sugar (optional)
2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.

1. Immediately pour baking soda into the flour and mix. The flour should be sifted first.
2. Break 2 chicken eggs into another cup, add salt, sugar and vanilla sugar. We take sugar to taste. If you take more sugar, the pancakes will fry faster. Mix with a whisk.

3. Next, pour in kefir. Mix.
4. Add flour and soda in several additions. Stir until the lumps disappear. The amount of flour depends on how large or small you take the eggs. The dough turns out similar to pancake dough.

5. Gradually, in several stages, add boiling water, stirring constantly.
6. At the very end, add vegetable oil. And mix again.

7. The result is a liquid dough.

The thickness of the pancakes depends on the thickness. If the dough is thick, then it does not have time to spread over the pan, and due to this the pancake turns out thick. If your dough is thick, you can add a little more boiling water to get the required consistency.

8. Add a few drops of vegetable oil to a heated frying pan. Fold a napkin or paper towel several times and grease the bottom of the pan. It is advisable to use a non-stick frying pan. The heating temperature should be above average. We measure out the same amount of dough all the time.

9. When the frying pan is hot, you can bake the first pancake. The pancakes bake quite quickly.

10. Let's count to 20, the edge is browned, and the pancake can be turned over. If you are baking a large number of pancakes, then the frying pan should be greased with vegetable oil as necessary. Thanks to soda, the pancakes are airy, delicate and very light.

10. Bake all the remaining pancakes in this manner.

The finished pancake can be immediately greased with butter or sprinkled with sugar. This amount of dough makes approximately 16 pancakes. They are very tasty. Be sure to try it.

Pancakes on kefir with boiling water (custard)

Make these pancakes recipe and I think you will like them. They differ from other pancakes in that they are more tender and rich in taste.

Ingredients:

400 ml. kefir,
300 g flour,
2 eggs,
200 ml. boiling water,
30 ml. sunflower oil,
a pinch of salt,
100 g sugar,
0.5 tsp soda

1. First, take the eggs, beat them into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, sugar and beat everything thoroughly with a whisk.

2. Add kefir and beat everything well again. We leave this mass aside for now.

3. Pour boiling water into another plate, add soda to it and mix everything well. Without ceasing to stir, pour the soda and water into the whipped mass. And again mix everything vigorously with a whisk.

4. Add refined sunflower oil and add flour in portions. We need to knead the dough like for pancakes. It should be liquid, but very slightly thick. You may need a little less flour, or a little more. Sift the flour through a sieve in advance.

5. The pancake dough is ready. The consistency should be homogeneous, without lumps and not very liquid.

6. Now the most interesting part - we will fry pancakes. For this it is better to take a special frying pan. At the very beginning, you need to lightly lubricate it with refined vegetable oil. Subsequently, when frying pancakes, you no longer need to grease it, since we added oil to the dough.

7. When the frying pan is well heated, take a small amount of dough, about one ladle, and distribute the dough in a circular motion over the frying pan. Fry the pancake until it is browned on the sides. Approximately 1 minute. Using a knife, pry it up by the edge, turn it over and fry on the other side.

8. Place it on a clean, dry plate. And fry all the other pancakes in exactly the same way.

They turned out beautiful, rosy, tasty and very thin. The above ingredients make about 15 pancakes.

Pancakes with kefir and milk

Be sure to try this universal recipe, which combines the advantages of two main ingredients - milk and kefir. The pancakes invariably turn out beautiful, delicate and tasty.

Products:

0.5 liters of kefir,
1 tbsp. milk,
1.5 tbsp. flour,
2 medium eggs
3 tbsp. vegetable oil,
2 tbsp. Sahara,
0.5 tsp salt,
1 tsp soda (without a splash).

1. The first thing we need to do is heat the kefir over low heat. To prevent it from curdling, stir it with a spoon. Next, take a bowl, pour kefir into it, add sugar, salt and soda.

2. Mix with a spoon. The mass will immediately begin to foam and increase in volume.
Beat in 2 eggs. To beat, use a mixer or whisk. Add 1.5 cups of sifted flour. We get a thick, fluffy mass.

3. Now we need to heat the milk and pour it into our pancake dough. Mix.

4. Add 3 tbsp. vegetable oil. Now let's look at the consistency of our dough. If it turns out watery, then you need to add a few tablespoons of flour. If the dough turns out thick, then add warmed milk. The dough should be left at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. And then fry pancakes.

If there are lumps in the dough, you can break them up with a mixer or leave them for half an hour, and then mix it again with a whisk or spoon, and the lumps will disperse. The consistency should resemble liquid sour cream.

5. Heat the frying pan, having previously greased it with vegetable oil.

6. Take half a ladle of dough and pour it into the frying pan.

7. When the edges of the pancake are browned, you can turn it over.

8. Fry for a minute on each side. Each time before pouring the dough into the pan, you need to stir it.

Grease the pan only once, before baking the pancakes.

The pancakes come out all in a hole, delicate. They can be filled with sweet or savory filling.

Kefir pancakes without eggs

This recipe will help you out if you don’t have eggs in the house, or if for some reason you don’t eat them. The pancakes turn out no less tasty and beautiful.

Products:

kefir – 500ml,
vegetable oil – 2 tbsp.,
flour – 300 g,
salt – 1 tsp,
sugar – 1-2 tbsp.,
soda – 0.5 tsp.

1. Pour milk into a small saucepan and place on low heat. Make sure it doesn't boil over.

2. Meanwhile, pour kefir into another container. It must be heated, but under no circumstances bring it to a boil.

3. And while the saucepan is heating up, pour soda into the warm kefir and mix thoroughly so that it foams and the soda is extinguished. Add sugar and salt.

4. Warm kefir, about 70 degrees, remove from heat, mix well again and gradually add flour in parts.

5. To make pancakes without lumps, you must first make a thick dough, like for pancakes, that is, mix kefir with flour, and then dilute it with milk.

6. Meanwhile, the milk became hot. It is advisable not to bring it to a boil so that foam does not form. Now pour the milk into the dough in a small stream, constantly stirring with a whisk. This makes choux pastry for pancakes.

If the dough is too runny, do not add flour to the bowl immediately. First you need to cast part of the dough, pour flour into it, stir thoroughly so that there are no lumps and combine with the remaining dough.

7. Finally, add 2 tbsp. vegetable oil and mix thoroughly again.

Be sure to add oil. Then the pancakes will not stick to the pan, and much less oil will be needed during baking.

The consistency of the pancake dough should be similar to liquid sour cream or heavy cream, but in no case, not like water.

10. Heat the frying pan very well, otherwise the pancakes may burn. Lubricate it with oil. We use only refined oil, since the temperature in the frying pan is quite high and when using unrefined oil, carcinogens are formed. You can use olive or other oil with a high smoke point.

11. Pour a little batter into the frying pan and fry the pancakes on both sides until golden brown.

12. You need to turn the pancakes over carefully so as not to tear them. You can use a special long spatula or knife.

Ready-made pancakes can be served immediately with sour cream, berries, honey, jam or syrup. And you can wrap any filling in them.

Cooking time: Not indicated

As far back as I can remember, I have always loved pancakes. But in our family we baked only thin, almost lacy pancakes. And so, when I first tried fluffy thick pancakes, a recipe made with kefir, I thought that these were not really pancakes, but rather a different dish, and that it was very difficult to cook. But it turned out that everything is much simpler than I thought. And, of course, I wrote down the recipe and began to cook it this way often.

After all, sometimes you just want to bake pancakes, spread them thickly with honey or jam and eat them one after another, washed down with fragrant tea. For such a case they are best suited. And you need the simplest, most affordable products, which you probably always have on hand. As for the dough, we will prepare it using kefir. Therefore, when buying kefir, immediately pay attention to its fat content, because the higher the percentage of fat the drink contains, the more delicious the dish will be. To make the dough more porous, we will add baking soda to it, then the pancakes will be airy and soft.

We also make sure to add eggs and vegetable oil, beaten with sugar, into the dough. In this case, we will bake in a dry frying pan, and the pancakes will not burn, because the dough will already be moderately greasy.

As for the actual process of baking pancakes, it is best to do this in a special small-diameter frying pan with a ceramic or Teflon coating.
This recipe makes 6 pancakes.

Ingredients:
- table chicken eggs - 3 pcs.,
- kefir - 500 ml.,
- granulated sugar - 3 tbsp. l.,
- table salt - 0.5 tsp,
- baking soda - 0.5 tsp,
- sunflower oil - 1 tbsp. l.,
- wheat flour - 2.5 tbsp.

Recipe with photos step by step:

Add warm kefir to the mixer bowl, in which baking soda is mixed, chicken eggs with granulated sugar and salt. Mix everything with a mixer until smooth. Now add sunflower oil and mix again.

We sift the wheat flour to saturate it with oxygen. Then, little by little, with continuous stirring, pour it into the dough.

The finished dough should be like thick sour cream.

Pour a portion of the dough into a hot greased frying pan (lightly grease it with a brush). Distribute it evenly over the surface of the pan and cover with a lid.

As soon as the edges of the pancake begin to dry out, immediately turn it over to the other side using a spatula. Fry it for another half a minute and place it on a plate.
