You can surprise with colorful pancakes not only on Shrovetide, but also on a children's party, meeting guests, or prepare a "rainbow" of pancakes for breakfast.
To do this, it is not at all necessary to resort to dyes, albeit food ones. For coloring these pancakes, only natural ingredients are used, which any housewife always has at hand.
It is necessary
- - milk 500 ml;
- - eggs 3 pcs.;
- - flour 1, 5 tbsp.;
- - sugar 0.5 tbsp;
- - salt 0.5 tsp;
- - vegetable oil 2 tablespoons;
- - carrot;
- - tomato juice or paste;
- - red cabbage;
- - boiled beets;
- - spinach puree.
Instructions
Step 1
In a bowl, beat eggs, flour and sugar. For dessert pancakes, add more sugar.
Step 2
Pour sifted flour into milk with eggs and beat with a mixer until smooth. Add oil. The dough should be the consistency of liquid sour cream.
Step 3
Divide the dough into the desired number of parts for further coloring with natural ingredients.
Pancake "rainbow":
If you add tomato juice or paste to the mixture, we get a red color.
To achieve yellow and orange, finely grate the carrots.
Blue and blue color for pancakes will provide red cabbage juice.
Greens are also useful when mixed with spinach puree.
For rosés, boiled beets are ideal. Vanilla sugar can be added to get rid of the beetroot flavor.
For whites, use whipped egg white.
Step 4
Fry the pancakes on both sides, roll them into tubes with your favorite filling and cut into pieces.
This option for serving beetroot pancakes is ideal for a romantic dinner or Valentine's Day.
