Sour pancakes - general principles and methods of preparation
Where are the pancakes, okay; where are the pancakes, here we are! We all love thin pancakes, but they take time. Another thing is fritters - no less delicious, they are a real lifesaver, when there is no time to cook.

Sour pancakes - product preparation
The sourness in the fritters dough is unobtrusive and very pleasant. You can get it in different ways - using yogurt or kefir, ordinary whey or just acidified with lemon juice or acid water. Saturated and tasty pancakes are obtained using fermented baked milk or kefir. It is fashionable to bake pancakes on sour cream, but very much they will be high-calorie.

Sour pancakes - tips from experienced chefs
Fritters can be cooked with cottage cheese. You will say: yes these are ordinary cheesecakes - but there are still differences. The pancake dough is more liquid, while the cheesecakes are molded by hand. Cheesecakes with berries are added even better - for example, currants or raspberries. You can use frozen berries. Just crush the cottage cheese with eggs and combine with the rest of the ingredients and fry on both sides.
