Custard pancakes with kefir

4 servings

20 minutes

Kefir pancakes are tender, airy, and surprisingly soft pancakes that melt in your mouth. Their secret lies in the combination of kefir and baking soda reacting with boiling water to create a bubbly and light batter structure. This recipe comes from Europe, where pancakes are not just a dish but a symbol of home comfort and family traditions. They have a pleasant tanginess from the kefir and a golden crust created by the hot pan. Suitable for both sweet and savory fillings: honey, jam, cottage cheese, or even lightly salted fish – the choice is yours. These pancakes are perfect for breakfast or a cozy family tea time, warming you with their taste and aroma.
