Step 1
Sift buckwheat and wheat flour through a fine sieve 3 times. This will enrich it with oxygen, which will make the dough fluffier and more airy.

Knead the dough. To do this, dissolve 30 grams of yeast in a little warm milk, pour in the rest and add buckwheat flour. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth and place in a warm place for fermentation for 1, 5-2 hours. The dough will improve the consistency of the dough, the pancakes will turn out to be looser and plump.
Step 4
After the time has passed, grind the egg pancakes with sugar, salt and sour cream. You should get an airy homogeneous mass. Add it to the dough and whisk.
Step 5
Pour wheat flour into the mixture gradually and pour in the milk. Beat the dough until the lumps disappear. Place it in a warm place before lifting.
Step 6
Whisk the whipped cream and add to the risen dough, stirring with a spatula from top to bottom. Let stand 15-20 minutes.
Step 7
Grease a pancake pan with vegetable or butter, chop it over the fire.
Step 8
Lift the pan, pour a little dough in a thin stream and spread it evenly over the entire surface with quick rotating movements. Bake pancakes with buckwheat flour on both sides.
Step 9
Pancakes can be served with salted fish, mushrooms or sour cream.
