Fritters are a fairly popular dish, as they are easy and simple to prepare, and all products are absolutely affordable. And at the same time, both adults and children like pancakes. Pancakes differ from pancakes not only in size and shape, but also in the composition of the dough.
Pancakes are kneaded to a state of thick sour cream so that the dough does not pour, but lazily slides off the spoon. And cooked in a hot frying pan, lightly greased with vegetable oil. Whatever recipe you choose for making fritters, you always want them to be tender and fluffy. Our tips will help you figure this out.
Recipes with the ingredient wheat flour
Recipes with baking powder
Step 1
For work, we need a frying pan, bowl, whisk, sieve.
Step 2
Always mix all dry ingredients (flour, soda, baking powder, cocoa, salt) first and be sure to sift them together.
Step 3
If the composition of the fritters includes an egg, then in order to make the fritters fluffy, beat the yolk with sugar and protein with a pinch of salt separately.
Step 4
Combine wet ingredients: kefir (yogurt, buttermilk, water) and prepared yolk.
Step 5
Add wet ingredients to prepared and sifted dry ingredients.
Step 6
Knead the dough with a whisk. But knead for a long time, because gluten develops in the dough from long mixing and the pancakes become rubbery. Remember: the longer you mix the dough, the harder the pancakes will be.
Step 7
Stir the egg whites into the batter last.
Step 8
Carefully pick up the prepared dough with a spoon from the edge. Do not stir the dough during the preparation of pancakes, so as not to remove gas bubbles from it.
Step 9
Spread the pancakes on a well-heated pan with a little oil. Leave enough space between pancakes. Don't make the pancakes too big. Fry over low to medium heat.
Step 10
Flip the fritters when the edges thicken and air bubbles begin to burst from the top of the fritters. When frying, do not press the pancakes on top with a cooking spatula for better frying. Flip the fritters carefully. Fry on the second side.
Step 11
To keep the crust on the pancakes crispy, stack them on a plate in one layer. Serve pancakes hot, with sour cream, honey or jam.
