Step by step process

Preparation

  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix plain flour, granulated sugar, vanilla sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt. Optionally add lemon zest for a fresh aroma.

    TIP: 

    Mix the wet and dry ingredients just until combined and don't mix for long, or the dough will be stiff. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes so the flour can absorb the liquid and the texture improves.

  2. 2

    In another bowl, whisk kefir with the eggs and stir in the melted (not hot) butter. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and briefly whisk to a smooth, fairly thick batter with no large lumps. Let it rest for 5 minutes so the flour can absorb the liquid.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat a thin layer of sunflower oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Test with a small drop of batter: it should sizzle gently immediately, but not brown too quickly.

    TIP: 

    A drop of batter in the oil should sizzle and slowly rise to the surface. It should not turn dark immediately. At a medium temperature, you'll get golden pancakes without burning.

  2. 4

    Ladle the batter to form small pancakes (about 7 cm in diameter). Fry 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges set.

  3. 5

    Flip and cook another 1-2 minutes until golden. Keep the finished pancakes warm (e.g., in an oven set to 80 °C) and add a little oil to the pan as needed while frying.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve warm pancakes with plain yogurt, fresh blueberries and maple syrup.

    TIP: 

    Serve warm pancakes with cool yogurt or quark and fresh fruit for a temperature contrast. For crispness, sprinkle with small nuts or seeds and lightly drizzle with syrup.

  2. 7

    Serve immediately after cooking. store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days and reheat briefly in a dry pan.

More tips:

If the batter is too thick, thin it with one or two spoonfuls of kefir. if it's too thin, stir in a small amount of flour.

For extra fluffiness, you can whip the egg whites to soft peaks and gently fold them in at the end.
