Kefir pancakes

5 servings

30 minutes

Kefir pancakes are a classic dish of Russian cuisine that combines softness, airiness, and a slight sourness thanks to the kefir. The history of such pancakes goes back centuries when housewives sought ways to make the dough especially tender and aromatic. Kefir added to the dough gives the pancakes a unique porous structure, while baking soda enhances this effect, making them even fluffier. These pancakes are perfect for breakfast or cozy tea times and can be served with honey, sour cream, jam, or fresh berries. The simplicity of preparation and availability of ingredients make this recipe one of the most beloved in home cooking.
