Diet pancakes

Cookinero 25 Feb 2025

There are different ways to make diet pancakes. The healthiest recipes are those using kefir instead of milk. These pancakes come off the pan better and are more tender than regular ones. And most importantly, they contain fewer calories! Diet pancakes can be made from any kefir, even expired. It slightly carbonates the dough, so the pancakes turn out lacy, with holes, although a little thicker than regular ones. To make them thinner, add soda to the dough.

How to cook Diet pancakes

Step 1

Diet pancakes

Start preparing the dough for diet pancakes. Pour kefir into a container. Add soda, mix well. Then add the egg, beat everything with a mixer at low speed. Add a pinch of salt and mix again. Gradually add flour to the dough. Do this slowly and stir constantly. Watch the consistency of the dough. It should not be too liquid.

Step 2

Diet pancakes

Start baking pancakes. Heat the frying pan well. Take only a frying pan with a non-stick coating, otherwise the pancakes will stick. If you still can’t fry pancakes in a dry frying pan, you can grease it with a little oil (you can use coconut oil instead of sunflower oil for frying). Pour some dough into the heated frying pan (about half a ladle), distribute it over the frying pan using circular horizontal movements. For convenience, use a special spatula.

Step 3

Fry each pancake for 3-4 minutes on each side. Make sure they don't burn, but are still golden and rosy. After that, cover the entire stack of pancakes with film or a towel so that they don't dry out.

Step 4

Serve pancakes with fruit and yogurt.

Store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Yes, freeze pancakes in a single layer on a tray, then transfer to a freezer bag. Reheat in a toaster or oven for best texture.
Reduce flour by half and add protein powder or almond flour. The texture will be denser but lower in carbs.
Try sugar-free syrup, nut butter, fresh berries, or Greek yogurt with cinnamon for healthier topping options.
Ensure your pan is properly heated before adding batter and use quality non-stick cookware. A light oil spray can help if needed.
It's best to cook pancakes immediately after mixing, as the baking soda begins reacting right away. For best results, mix fresh.
Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes after mixing and don't overmix. This allows the gluten to relax for fluffier results.
This batter may be too thin for waffles. Add an extra egg and reduce liquid slightly for better waffle consistency.
