Pancakes without eggs and milk

Eggless and milkless pancakes are a simple yet surprisingly delicious recipe rooted in Russian cuisine. This version of the dish emerged as a response to the need for making tender, golden pancakes without animal products. Thin and airy, they have a light sweetness from sugar, while sparkling water gives the batter a bubbly texture, making the pancakes especially tender. Their taste resembles traditional Russian pancakes but with crispier edges. They pair excellently with jam, honey, or fresh berries and can also serve as a base for savory variations with vegetables and herbs. An ideal choice for a fasting menu or for those following a plant-based diet.
