Pancake batter
Ingredients:
- Eggs – 3 pcs.
- Milk – 3 glasses
- Flour – 2.5 cups
- Sugar – 1 tbsp.
- Salt – 1/2 tsp.
- Vegetable oil – 4 tbsp.
Preparation:
1. Break the eggs into a deep container.
2. Add a tablespoon of sugar and half a teaspoon of salt.
3. Pour in four tablespoons of vegetable oil.
4. Pour in three glasses of milk. Beat all this with a mixer.
5. Beat milk with eggs, gradually add flour. You can pour out the first glass right away, just first mix in the flour by hand, without turning on the mixer, otherwise the flour may fly like ashes from a volcano all over your kitchen. Once all the flour is wet, you can turn on the mixer and add flour little by little from the second glass.
6. After pouring in the second glass, check the consistency of the dough. If it’s runny, slowly add the remaining flour, constantly checking to see if there’s enough already. You may end up with all the flour and a little less.
7. We selected the consistency of the dough, approximately like medium-thick cream, or like very liquid store-bought sour cream; it should not pour out of a spoon, but easily drain, pour, and then go ahead and fry.
So that everything works out for you!

Pancakes with milk - secrets and useful tips from the best chefs
- If your pancakes keep tearing, try adding more flour to the batter. If, on the contrary, they turn out to be very dense and thick, then you need to pour in a little warm milk;
- If pancakes are baked for filling, it is better to fry the pancake on one side only. In this case, the filling is placed on the fried side. The other side will brown in a frying pan or in the oven.
The most common mistakes when making pancakes with milk:
- Beating the dough too intensively can cause the pancakes to become rubbery;
- If the soda has not been sufficiently quenched, the finished pancakes may have an unpleasant aftertaste;
- You need to correctly determine the number of eggs. An excess of eggs in the dough will make the pancakes look like an omelet or scrambled eggs, and if there is a lack of eggs, the pancakes may fall apart;
- To prevent the edges of the pancakes from burning, you do not need to add sugar to the dough;
- Too much butter in the batter will make the pancakes too greasy, shiny and tasteless.
