For 4 serving

Ingredients

500 g of kefir
2 cups medium-coarse flour
2 eggs (separated into whites and yolks)
pinch of salt
Sugar to taste
1 teaspoon baking soda
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Preparation procedure

Preparing the batter: Beat the egg whites until stiff. Mix the yolks with the remaining ingredients: kefir, medium-coarse flour, salt, sugar, and baking soda. Important: Don't overdo the mixing! It's enough for the dry ingredients to absorb the liquid and form a uniform batter. The longer you mix, the more the gluten in the flour tightens, which will make the pancakes tough.
Folding in the egg whites: Finally, gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter. This step gives the pancakes their fluffiness.
Frying the pancakes: On the pan, simply coat the bottom with a little vegetable oil; you don't need to overdo it. Fry the pancakes on both sides until golden.
Serving: Serve the pancakes warm; you can sprinkle them with sugar, garnish with fruit, or serve with your favorite jam.

This kefir pancake recipe is simple yet very effective. Enjoy their fluffiness and delicacy! Enjoy your meal!
