On kefir, thick pancakes turn out just the way they should: tempting and tasty. The dish is prepared from what is in the house: instead of kefir, any sour-milk products of a similar consistency are suitable. Moreover, in such a dough, it is not necessary to let the product of the first freshness. Kefir or even sour milk starting to ferment with the work in the test will do perfectly well.

Yeast pancakes on kefir

For cooking you will need:

  • kefir (at least at room temperature, and preferably warm) - 1 cup (250 ml);
  • chicken egg - one large or two small;
  • wheat flour - 1 cup plus a small amount in case the dough needs to be thickened;
  • sugar - from 2 teaspoons;
  • baking yeast - a couple of teaspoons of powder or about 30 g of pressed (most manufacturers indicate on the package how to correctly calculate the amount of yeast of this particular brand).

Auxiliary ingredients:

  • hot water - a third of a glass, you can replace it with kefir, but then it will be more difficult to bake pancakes: they will turn out to be more fragile and less elastic;
  • salt - a small amount to taste;
  • liquid oil (vegetable or melted butter) - usually a couple of tablespoons are added to the dough, however, the actual amount of fat depends on the coating of the pan, your tastes and style of frying;
  • Hard fat (like raw bacon), some people like to grease the pan before cooking.

How to bake thick yeast pancakes:

  1. They put the dough: kefir is mixed with sugar, half a glass of flour and yeast. Dry yeast is added as is.Pressed yeast must be prepared in advance. To do this, they are stirred in a nutrient medium (pour a portion and add sugar from the main volume of kefir) and leave for about ten minutes - until bubbles appear and a characteristic smell.
  2. The mixture is covered with a towel and allowed to stand for 30-50 minutes in warmth.
  3. Eggs are gently mixed in the risen dough (sometimes they are already whipped), small portions of the remaining flour (it is better to use a sieve), additional sugar, salt.
  4. Mix the entire mixture thoroughly to make a homogeneous batter. It is advisable to use a mixer or at least a hand whisk.
  5. If the dough is thick, it's time to add hot water (or kefir) and mix more.
  6. Oil is added to the dough and stirred.
  7. The dough “rests” for 15-20 minutes, so that all the components are connected and fully work.
  8. Pour and evenly distribute a moderate portion of the dough into a hot frying pan, if necessary greased, to form a flat cake several mm high. It will not be possible to turn over a lush pancake until the entire layer of dough has seized - that is, when excess moisture has left the surface, bubbles will burst on the upper side of the pancake (even get thick pancakes with holes if the fire is strong enough) and a dried crust will start to appear.

Apple Recipe

Apples can be combined with pancakes in two ways: mix them directly in the dough, as when frying pancakes, or bake pancakes with baking in the standard way.

 

Ingredients:

  • all those products that are indicated in the recipe for the most common thick pancakes with kefir, yeast or yeast - your choice;
  • an apple is one (medium size), the variety should be chosen at your discretion: some like apple acidity tinting the sweetness of pastries, while others prefer to put sweet fruits right away, only slightly sweetening the dough with sugar.

Cooking method:

  1. Knead the pancake dough according to the selected recipe.
  2. While the dough is resting before baking, take care of the apple: wash it, peel it and rid it of the core.
  3. Now the apple is crushed. The fraction depends on further use. To add the prepared apple to the dough, grate it, or cut it into small cubes. If you plan regular baking, you can cut it into small slices, or make medium-sized cubes.
  4. When the slicing is finished, it’s time to heat the pan and combine the baking with the dough. Apple chips are sent to the dough. It should cover all the pieces of fruit that need to be evenly distributed throughout the mass, so the mixture should be thoroughly mixed. Further, apple pancakes are baked in the same way as ordinary pancakes. Standardly, the filling is baked in two ways. You can put a few slices or slices of apple, and pour dough on top. Or vice versa: first pour the dough and, as soon as it starts to set, put a little apple on top. Which method is more convenient is a matter of preferences and features of the selected apple variety. In any case, so that such a pancake does not fall apart when turned over, skill is needed. It is recommended to use a culinary spatula rather than a narrow knife blade.
