Pumpkin Kefir Pancakes

Bright, sunny little pancakes for your afternoon tea — delicious, wholesome, and easy! This recipe is a bit out of the ordinary, and so are the pancakes: vivid in color, fluffy, and so, so good. I fold a healthy vegetable right into the batter — pumpkin — and it lends color, aroma, and a lovely flavor. Want to give them a try?

    1. Cut off a wedge of pumpkin, peel it, and scrape out the stringy fibers. Grate the pumpkin on a box grater.
    1. In a separate bowl, pour in the kefir, crack in the egg, add the sugar, and stir.
    1. Sift the flour and baking soda into the mixture and add a knife-tip of vanillin. Whisk until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. Keep in mind that you may need a little more or less flour depending on the brand.
    1. Now fold the grated pumpkin into the batter and mix well. The batter should be thick enough that it doesn't spread out the moment it hits the pan.
    1. Fry the pancakes in vegetable oil on both sides until golden brown.
  • Serve them warm.
  • Enjoy!
  • Be ready to use a little more or less flour than the recipe calls for. Go by the consistency of the batter rather than the exact amount of flour. When in doubt, read up on flour and how it behaves.
  • Fry with an oil that has a high smoke point! Every oil is only good for you up to a certain temperature — its smoke point — beyond which it starts to burn and form toxic compounds, including carcinogens. Most unrefined oils have a low smoke point: they're full of unfiltered organic particles that scorch quickly. Refined oils hold up to heat much better and have a higher smoke point. If you're baking, pan-frying, or grilling, reach for a high-smoke-point oil. Common choices: refined sunflower, olive, and grapeseed oil.
