Cinnamon flavored pancakes without eggs or yeast

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Prepare all the necessary products. Let me remind you that when it comes to baking, all products should be at the same room temperature. Take kefir of any fat content. In principle, not only kefir will do, but any fermented milk product: yogurt, snowballs, and even fermented baked milk. I recommend using first-grade flour. High-grade flour is almost always snow-white, which means it is bleached in production using chlorine.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour the kefir into the bowl in which you will make the pancake dough. Take larger dishes, because... The kefir and dough will greatly increase in volume. Heat the kefir until it “curls” slightly. In a microwave oven this is 1 minute at power 1000.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add baking soda. It is thanks to soda that the pancakes always turn out fluffy, although the dough contains neither eggs nor yeast.

4. STEP 4

   

   Add a little salt. Where sugar is used, salt should always be added. Even in sweet dishes. This way the taste will be much more balanced.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add sugar and ground cinnamon to taste. I use regular white sugar. But if you wish, you can use cane - then the pancakes will have a light caramel taste. Or coconut sugar - then the pancakes will not only be vanilla, but also have a light coconut aroma.

6. STEP 6

   

   Mix everything. The kefir will begin to bubble and increase greatly in volume. At this stage, you can add some of your favorite spices to the dough. - whatever suits your taste for pancakes!

7. STEP 7

   

   Add flour.

8. STEP 8

   

   For baking, the process of sifting flour is very important: during it, it is saturated with oxygen and the finished baked goods are more airy. Therefore, I recommend using a sieve.

9. STEP 9

   

   Stir the dough until smooth. The consistency should be like thick sour cream. Different flours have different gluten levels, so don't add all the flour at once - you may need a little more or a little less. Focus on the thickness of the dough!

10. STEP 10

    

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. It can be any vegetable, but it must be refined, because... we will fry on it, and refined oil does not burn. Spoon out a little dough. Fry the pancakes for 2-3 minutes over low heat.

11. STEP 11

    

    Then turn the pancakes over and cook for another 1-2 minutes.

    These pancakes are delicious both hot and cold. Bon appetit!
