It is generally accepted that pancakes are a Russian national dish. This is only partly true. Pancakes are prepared in different countries, only in their own variations. They vary in size and taste. Classic pancake recipes are constantly changing and now there are many original and unusual recipes for these pastries, for example, colored pancakes.
Whey Chocolate Pancakes
For pancakes you need to take:
- 1 liter of whey
- 1 chicken egg
- 2 cups of flour
- 4 tablespoons Sahara
- 50-60 ml of vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp with a slide of cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- salt to your taste
- The first thing to do is pour out 100-150 ml of serum and set it aside for later use.
- We start working with the test. Pour milk whey into a deep bowl - 1 glass, which must be "put in order" if it is strongly acidic. A little water or sugar should be added to it. Drive in an egg. Sift the flour and knead a fairly thick dough from a glass of whey.
- To make future pancakes in a hole, you should do this: dilute baking soda in 100 ml of whey and pour it over the kneaded dough.
- Then add the vegetable oil and any remaining unused ingredients. Stir well until greasy reflections are visible.
- Leave the dough for 30-40 minutes alone so that the gluten in it swells to the desired state.
- Add cocoa to the dough. Now look at the consistency of the dough and adjust it with the whey that was set aside at the beginning of the recipe.
- Heat a frying pan, grease with oil and bake pancakes until required on both sides.
- Serve with whatever you prefer - sour cream, condensed milk, honey, etc.
Colored additives
