How to make lean and delicious pancakes without eggs
It turns out that you can make pancakes without milk, kefir or eggs at all. As they say: live forever, learn forever. This year I tried this pancake recipe for the first time. And, imagine, my whole family was pleased with the result.
The secret to these pancakes is the sparkling water. Gas bubbles continue to play in the dough the entire time we bake.
These vegetarian pancakes can be eaten with jam, preserves or lean mayonnaise. I give small proportions for you to cook for testing. You'll see, everyone who tastes them will definitely like them.
What you will need:
Preparation:
We take all products at room temperature. The sparkling water bottle must be closed. We will open it just before kneading the dough. And the warmer the water, the better it will “play” in the dough.
I sift the flour into a bowl. I add soda, salt and sugar to it. I open the bottle and pour a glass of water. Adding water to the flour, continue to mix vigorously with a whisk.
Mixing soda with carbonated water will begin to hiss and bubble vigorously.
The mass is immediately thick, like pancakes. But I then pour a second glass of water and liquefy the dough. It becomes liquid and bubbly.
Add vegetable oil and mix well. In two minutes our dough is ready.
This dough is also good because it does not require proofing. It already plays at the expense of sparkling water.
The frying pan is already heating up on the stove. I lubricate it with vegetable oil. You can start baking pancakes.
For this lean dough, I grease the frying pan with vegetable oil each time. And the pancakes turn out amazing. Ruddy, crispy and just melt in your mouth!
From this amount of dough I baked only 10 pancakes. If you believe me that they are very tasty, then it’s better to get more of them right away.

Custard pancakes with milk and boiling water
[blok_6_h2] Many times I asked myself the question “Why exactly does this recipe produce the most “holey” pancakes”? And I never found an answer.
