A small amount of sugar gives the pancakes a golden appearance and crispy edges. When they're ready, add your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, whipped cream, or even savory options.

Pancakes are a great opportunity to get creative with different combinations of flavors.

Tiny crepes recipe in cups

Yield: 20 pieces

Ingredients

Tiny crepes dought

2 eggs
2 tbsp sugar
3 tbsp vegetable oil
a pinch of salt
1 cup sour milk (or kefir)
1 cup flour
1 cup boiling water

Orange sauce for pancakes

120 gr sugar
150 ml orange juice
zest of 1 orange
20 ml Cointreau liqueur
50 gr butter

Instructions

Mix everything except boiling water in a blender. Add boiling water - continuing to whisk. Ready. Can be baked in a hot pan.

If there is no blender, then first mix the egg, sugar, and vegetable oil, salt - until smooth. Then we add all the flour and part of the kefir (I do not add all the liquid at once - so that there are no lumps - first we make a thick dough without lumps, then we make it liquid). Mix until smooth, when it turned out - add the remaining kefir, and mix. Add boiling water while stirring constantly. Fry in a hot pan.

Orange sauce for pancakes

For the sauce, heat sugar in a pan until caramelized. Once it melts and turns a caramel color, add the orange juice. Evaporate the juice, add the Cointreau liqueur, and gently set it on fire. As soon as the liquor burns out, tighten the sauce with a piece of butter.
