Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to bake thin lean pancakes without eggs using mineral water? Very simple! The dough is kneaded in a few minutes. To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. Take the highest grade flour. Take highly carbonated mineral water, because it is the bubbles that will make the dough airy. Take any vegetable oil.

Step 2

Step 2
Sift the flour through a sieve into a bowl. Add sugar and salt and stir. You can read more about flour in the article; the link to it is at the end of the recipe.

Step 3

Step 3
Pour half the soda water into the flour and mix the dough with a whisk until smooth. Then pour in the remaining water little by little. You may need more or less water for this amount of flour. Check the consistency after adding vegetable oil. The dough will be slightly viscous — this is how it should be. If you wish, you can add a little more sugar to the dough.

Step 4
Pour in the vegetable oil and stir thoroughly with a whisk.

Step 5

Step 5
Leave the dough for 5-10 minutes at room temperature. During this time, it will thicken slightly because gluten will be released from the flour. If the dough has thickened too much, add more mineral water. The finished dough should be fluid and homogeneous.

Step 6

Step 6
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and grease with vegetable oil. Pour some batter into a ladle and spread throughout the pan. Fry the pancake on both sides until golden brown. When frying other pancakes, there is no need to grease the pan with oil. Read about all the nuances of preparing pancake dough and suitable pans in the articles at the end of the recipe under the steps.
