If you decide to pamper your family, but there is no milk or kefir in the refrigerator as a base for the dough, this should not stop you - prepare pancakes with sour cream (any fat content) and hot water. Before cooking, decide what you will serve them with. It is better not to use this recipe for pancakes with liquid filling - it will leak out, making the pancakes too lacy.
To avoid lumps, first knead thicker (like pancakes), and then add liquid.
Don't forget to grease the pan. This is convenient to do with a silicone brush. If you don’t have it, cut a peeled potato in half, prick it on a fork, dip it in oil and grease the surface of the pan.
Ingredients:
- Sour cream – 200 g;
- Eggs – 2 pcs.;
- Cold water – 200 g;
- Salt – ½ tsp;
- Granulated sugar – 3 tbsp. spoons without top;
- Soda – 0.5 tsp;
- Vegetable oil in the dough - 3 tbsp. l., plus 3 tbsp. l. for frying;
- Flour;
- Boiling water – 1 l.
Step-by-step preparation:
- Dilute sour cream with water in a 1:1 ratio. It’s more convenient to do this in a plastic or glass jar with a lid - just combine the ingredients and shake the container well several times.
- Add baking soda dissolved in vinegar or lemon juice and stir until bubbles appear.
- Add sugar, salt, beat in eggs.
- When adding flour, knead the dough a little thicker than for pancakes. Give it a try. If you like your pancakes sweeter, add granulated sugar. Leave for 10 minutes.
- Put the water to boil.
- Add about a quarter cup of water at a time and stir, add water again and stir again. Bring the dough to pancake consistency.
- Pour in vegetable oil, stir. Taste and add salt if necessary.
- Place the frying pan over medium heat and grease it. As soon as the pan is hot, start baking.
Pancakes made from choux pastry with sour cream and water never turn out lumpy; they come out of the pan perfectly, so they are easy to fry in two or three pans at once. This significantly speeds up the process; a stack of lacy, ruddy pancakes quickly grows right before your eyes.
Yeast pancakes with sour cream
Those same holes that many housewives unsuccessfully achieve are created by yeast. It happens that sour cream turns sour. You can’t eat it in this form, but you can bake pancakes. Slight staleness of the product will not affect the taste of the finished dish. Of course, we are not talking about sour milk, which is covered with a yellow film or mold, but if you forgot to put the jar in the refrigerator in the morning, in the evening it is quite possible to knead the dough and bake pancakes.
We will need:
- Sour sour cream – 1 cup;
- Eggs – 1-2 pcs.;
- Water – 1 glass;
- Flour – 300 g;
- Granulated sugar – 3-4 tbsp. l., plus 1 tsp. for dough;
- Salt - a pinch;
- Dry yeast – 15 g,
- Vegetable oil – 6 tbsp. l. (including for greasing the pan).
Preparation:
- First, prepare a dough of yeast, warm water and sugar. To do this, pour the full amount of yeast, a teaspoon of sugar into a glass and pour in a small amount of warm water. Stir, add the remaining water, stir again and leave for a quarter of an hour. If the yeast is fresh, within a few minutes foam will begin to form on the surface.
- In a plastic, enamel or glass bowl, combine sour cream, eggs, salt, granulated sugar, and flour. Mix. You should get a homogeneous and fairly thick dough.
- Pour in the dough, stir, add vegetable oil, mix again, leave for 10 minutes, after which you can bake pancakes.
Depending on the weight of the eggs and the quality of the flour, the fat content and thickness of the fermented milk product, the consistency of the dough can be different with the same amount of ingredients. If it's too thick, add a little warm boiled water.
Pancakes with sour cream and milk without soda
Milk makes the pancakes more tender, and sour cream provides a golden crispy edge, why not combine these ingredients and prepare what is called a two-in-one dough, the dish will turn out to be very economical and tasty.
The products needed are:
- Milk (room temperature) – 0.5 l;
- Sour cream – 6 tablespoons;
- Flour – 200 g;
- Egg – 2 pcs.;
- Salt – 0.5 tsp;
- Sugar – 2 tables. l.;
- Vegetable oil – 3 tbsp. l. into the dough and 2 baking spoons.
The specified quantity makes 15 pancakes.
Preparing pancake dough:
- Pour eggs into a bowl, add salt and sugar, sour cream. Mix the ingredients with a whisk or fork.
- Now it's the turn of the milk. If you just took it out of the refrigerator, be sure to reheat it. Cold milk will make pancakes tough.
- Sift the flour and add it to the mixture in small portions. You can pour the desired portion into a sieve and sift and knead at the same time.
- All that remains is to pour in the vegetable oil, and you can bake pancakes with sour cream and milk.
This recipe is suitable for fillings. For meat, mushroom and other savory fillings, the amount of sugar can be reduced, but we do not recommend eliminating it completely; it gives the dough not so much sweetness as taste.
If you like thin pancakes with holes, be sure to try recipes with sour cream. They are more filling than those made with milk, but also tastier. Even the next day they are extraordinarily good; they can be heated in the microwave or fried in butter until crispy in a frying pan - before doing this, they are folded into triangles or rolled into a tube.
Nutritionists say that we need to reduce the number of calories in our diet that we “eat” in the evening, while morning calories, on the contrary, are beneficial. Therefore, for breakfast you can safely prepare your favorite thin pancakes with sour cream and enjoy them with pleasure, naturally, without forgetting about a sense of proportion. They are prepared just as easily and simply as traditional ones with milk or lean mineral water, and they turn out even more tasty, golden brown and crispy.
In our today's selection of the best recipes on this topic, we offer two of the simplest and one that will require a little tinkering, but the amazing result - fluffy homemade pancakes - is worth it! And to make the treat tasty and healthy, you shouldn’t skimp on products. It’s better to take the freshest ones, because we’ll be cooking for ourselves and our family.
Lush by leaps and bounds
Yeast pancakes are considered traditional. They were baked back in Ancient Rus', and they were especially popular on Maslenitsa. Due to the fermentation of the dough due to yeast, the finished pancake turns out, firstly, fluffy and quite thick, and secondly, especially if the dough is slightly acidified, with numerous holes. Yeast dough requires more time, since it needs at least 1 hour to rise, in the classic version - 3-4 hours. But the time spent is worth the result - fluffy sour cream-based pancakes instantly disappear from the table.
Ingredients
Before preparing pancakes with sour cream, prepare the following products:
- two glasses of 15 percent sour cream;
- 200 milliliters of milk;
- 200 milliliters of water;
- 5 whites (or eggs - 2-3 pieces);
- 1.5 cups flour;
- 30 grams of pressed fresh yeast;
- 1/4 cup sugar;
- a pinch of salt;
- 2.5 tablespoons of refined vegetable oil.
All ingredients for making pancakes with sour cream must be at room temperature, and milk and water must be heated to at least 40 degrees. In addition, even slightly sour sour cream (but not bitter!) is suitable as a base - pancakes made with sour sour cream will have a more pronounced milky taste.
We recommend: Pancake pie with curd filling
Cooking process
A fairly simple recipe will allow you to make such pancakes any day, especially when there is leftover sour cream in the refrigerator or it has spoiled a little. Let's get started:
- Pour a glass of warm water into a large bowl, crumble the yeast into it, add 4-5 tablespoons of flour from the total portion and stir the dough well so that there are no lumps. The dough must be immediately removed to a warm place, covered with a napkin or towel, for about 1 hour.
- In another bowl, use a mixer or whisk to combine sour cream and flour, which has previously been sifted through a sieve. Whisk everything so that there are no lumps.
- If you use only egg whites, carefully separate them from the yolks, pour them into a bowl and beat separately until fluffy peaks form, as you would for a sponge cake or meringue. Now transfer the protein foam into the sour cream and flour and mix gently with a spatula by hand.
- Dissolve salt in heated milk, add sugar, stir everything so that there are no crystals. Now add this milk to the finished dough, on the surface of which by this time air bubbles should have formed and a characteristic smell should appear.
- Pour the dough with milk into the sour cream and protein mixture and stir. At the very end, add sunflower oil and beat gently with a mixer again at low speed.
- Cover the bowl again with a towel and leave the dough to rise for about 50 minutes, after which we mix it well to remove excess air. If the kitchen is relatively cold, you can raise the dough in a slow cooker or oven at 40 degrees.
- Pancakes are fried in vegetable oil or without fat at all, if the surface of the pan allows. It is not recommended to overdry them, since the dough is quite thick and will break when folded. It is necessary to fry very quickly, because if the yeast is fresh, the dough may ferment, resulting in the pancakes having an unpleasant yeasty smell and taste.
We recommend: Pancakes with milk without yeast
These pancakes are best served with sour cream, honey or other liquid filling. You won’t be able to roll them into a square; it’s best to serve liquid sauces as a filling so that you can dip each pancake in it.

How to properly bake classic thin pancakes with sour cream
To get a truly rich taste of pancakes, you should use sour cream and butter of maximum fat content. But even with less high-calorie foods, they also turn out appetizing.
- We take a container with high edges and beat all three eggs into it, add flour and sour cream there. Salt the mixture and stir until smooth. This can be done manually, armed with a whisk, or a mixer.
- Dilute the mixture with soda and season with the prepared piece of butter.
- Cover the pancake dough that we have made and let it sit (without refrigeration).
- When the time is up, take a pancake maker or your favorite frying pan, heat it up, grease the bottom from the inside with a drop of vegetable oil.
- The crucial moment is to pour the first ladle of fairly liquid dough into the frying pan (it should be exactly like this!) and spread it over the surface with a circular motion of your hand.
- As soon as the edge of the pancake begins to brown on the bottom, turn the product over, wait 30 seconds and remove - the cake is ready. We bake everything else in the same way.
To get a hearty dish, each pancake can be flavored with butter - it melts easily on the hot pancake surface. Flatbreads made with fermented milk products turn out so delicious that they don’t even need filling - with fresh fruit or jam they are very appetizing!

- At the end, flavor the almost finished pancake dough with butter.
We bake pancakes in the same way as in the first case. For each of them, the bottom of the pan (pancake pan) needs to be oiled. If you add a little more vegetable fat to the dough, thin cakes will not stick even without greasing.
Having filled the pancakes with your favorite filling, roll them into an envelope, triangle or tube. If you fry them in oil, they will become even tastier, but you can serve them without frying - they will still go on plates in no time.

Thin pancakes with holes
Despite the fact that sour cream is a fairly thick dairy product, it can be used to make thin pancakes. In this case, pure sour cream is also not used, it is diluted with carbonated mineral water. The pancakes turn out very fragrant, golden brown, crispy, and go well with almost any filling, especially sweet ones. The pancake recipe is simple and quick.
Ingredients
The composition of the products is traditional for any type of pancakes. For thin sour cream-based pancakes you will need the following products:
- 80 milliliters of carbonated mineral water without flavoring;
- 3 medium eggs;
- vanilla extract – a couple of drops (or 1 packet of dry vanilla);
- 15 percent sour cream - 200 milliliters;
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine;
- 5 heaped tablespoons of white flour;
- 5 tablespoons of refined oil;
- a pinch of salt.
We will not use baking powder or soda. They add fluffiness to the dough and make it difficult to achieve crispy edges. It is due to the absence of baking powder that small holes form on the surface of the pancakes.
