Sometimes, after preparing some delicious dishes, housewives have a little milk left in their bins, which subsequently turns sour. Why pour the product down the sink if you can use it to make airy, fluffy and tender pancakes? Store-bought yogurt is a wonderful substitute for sour milk.
How to cook traditional pancakes with yogurt
Required ingredients:
- 200 grams of curdled milk;
- 2 cups premium flour;
- sugar to taste (usually 4 tbsp);
- 0.5 tsp. salt;
- 0.5 tsp. soda;
- 5 tbsp. l. sunflower (olive) oil.
- Mix egg and sugar, soda, vegetable oil and salt. Stir the mixture until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Pour half a cup of flour into the bowl and mix again. Add half a glass of yogurt, stir until smooth.
- After stirring again, add the remaining flour and curdled milk, it all depends on how many pancakes you are counting on. As a result, the mixture should acquire the consistency of low-fat store-bought sour cream.
- Leave the dough for half an hour, let it swell a little.
- Pour the batter for the first pancake onto a preheated and greased frying pan. To do this, direct the mixture to the middle of the dish, and then rotate the pan in a circle until the dough spreads over the entire surface.
- After frying the pancake on one side, carefully hook it by the edge, turn it over and fry the other side.
- Place the pancake on a plate.
“Custard” pancakes on yogurt with boiling water
Adding boiling water to curdled milk makes the dough flexible and unpretentious. These pancakes turn over easily and do not tear. Pancakes can be baked fluffy or, conversely, thin.
Required ingredients:
- 2 cups yogurt;
- 500 grams of premium flour;
- 2 eggs;
- 0.5 tsp. soda;
- 200-250 ml boiling water;
- about 0.5 cups granulated sugar;
- 3 tbsp. l. vegetable oil;
- salt and vanillin to taste.
- Mix eggs and sugar in a bowl. Those with a sweet tooth will need a little more than half a glass of sugar. Lovers of meat filling should add a couple of pinches of salt (1 tsp). Mix the mixture thoroughly with a whisk or fork.
- Pour out the yogurt, add flour, and add vanilla if desired.
- After mixing, a dough is formed, which is stirred to a homogeneous thick consistency.
- Carefully pour water brought to a boil into a glass with a spoon (so that the dishes do not crack), immediately add 0.5 tsp. soda Pour the resulting mass into the prepared dough, mix carefully. Many bubbles should form on the surface of the dough. Set the dough aside for 5 minutes.
- Add vegetable oil.
- Pour half a ladle into a hot and oiled frying pan and spread the mixture over the entire bottom. Of course, it is better to use a pancake maker. An alternative is to use a low frying pan with a thick non-stick coating.
- When frying, the pancake should bake and the bubbles should burst. It takes up to 1 minute to cook the first side of the pancake. The second barrel cooks much faster.
- Prepare all the pancakes and place them on a plate in a “tower” and let them sit untouched. This will make them softer.

Pancakes with yogurt will appeal to those who are not too fond of sweet pastries. The peculiarity of the dish is its sweet and sour taste and fluffy consistency.
The softness and plasticity of pancakes allows you to wrap any filling in them, the main thing is to prepare it in advance.
For sweet pancakes, cottage cheese with raisins, stewed apples, fresh berries mashed with sugar are suitable. In a word, experiment and find the option that you like best.
Salty pancakes go well with red caviar, salmon, mushrooms or minced meat.
In addition to yogurt, the list of ingredients for the dough includes: eggs, flour, soda, salt, sugar. Sometimes you don't even need to buy eggs to make pancakes.
Preparing utensils and components for dough
In order to make the dough, you will need an enamel bowl, a whisk, a measuring cup or kitchen scale, a tablespoon and a teaspoon, a sieve and a frying pan.
I would like to note that a non-stick frying pan is suitable for baking pancakes. If you don't have it, use cast iron frying pan, in it, too, the pancakes will not come out “lumpy” and easily turn over.
Before pouring flour into the dough, be sure to sift it so that lumps do not form.
Remove the eggs from refrigeration chamber and wait until they are at room temperature. It is better to warm the yogurt slightly, so the salt and granulated sugar will dissolve in it faster.
Sometimes eggs need to be separated into two parts. If you have not yet learned how to do this flawlessly, get a special device.
The usual one will also help plastic bottle: you need to release the air from it and place it on the yolk of a broken egg. The yolk will be drawn in, but the white will remain in the bowl.
If the recipe contains butter, melt it and cool it to room temperature. Most often, the dough contains vegetable oil; you need to use refined oil.
It is odorless and will not spoil the taste of the finished dish. Pancakes should be baked for 30-40 seconds on each side. If you plan to cook them with filling, do not overcook the second side.
Subsequently, when you wrap them with the pale side out and fry them in a frying pan, they will take on a more appetizing appearance. The filling should be made in advance and allowed to cool.
