Cooking pancakes made of pumpkin. Recipe

Orange pumpkin on the table of our kitchen reminds us of a bright sunny summer at any, even the most overcast and cold season. It is difficult to find another product that would yield a pumpkin in its valuable nutritional properties. There are known recipes for preparing a variety of dishes from it.

One of these dishes are pumpkin pancakes , recipes of which are so simple that even the most ignorant mistress can cope with them.

For preparation of pancakes it will be required: pumpkin peeled - 500 grams, two eggs, 1/2 tbsp. Kefir, 2-3 tablespoons. Granulated sugar, 1/4 tsp. Salt, 1/2 tsp soda and flour to a thick consistency of the dough (from about 1/2 cup).

Pancakes made of pumpkin. The recipe for their preparation is as follows:

• Pumpkin should be grated and mixed in a bowl with salt and sugar;

• add soda to the bowl of kefir, stirring, let stand for 8-10 minutes, so that the pumpkin let the juice;

• adding eggs and flour, mix until smooth consistency. And bake.

Apply the dough on a well-heated frying pan dipped in a glass of water with a tablespoon. Fry pancakes recommended under the lid, reducing the fire to medium. Roasting under the lid will make the dough thicker, and the pancakes themselves will not be so thin and friable. Consequently, they do not absorb a lot of oil, and the product will end up being quite dietary.

You can serve pancakes with sour cream, jam, whipped cream, just with butter, with sugar or without. Both cold and hot. Here, everyone chooses to his liking. Many will have to taste this golden dietary creation, served for breakfast or a mid-morning snack.

Each mistress, who once created such a miracle, can change the technology of cooking herself to her taste. After all, even in the course of the first preparation of this dish many will immediately have variants of changes.

Pancakes pancakes, the recipe of which can be easily improved by adding apples, raisins, prunes, or dried apricots, cut into small pieces, as additional ingredients. Here the flight of fantasy can be limited only to the tastes of the hostess and her household or the products available at the moment.

Fans of muffin can be recommended to add cinnamon or vanilla to the dough.

You can vary the size of the grinding pumpkin in the direction of coarsening the "grain": simply cut into small (0.5 cm) cubes. The taste in this case will turn out somewhat different - again for an amateur.

The ratio of salt and sugar can also be adjusted. Believe me, salted pancakes are not less tasty than sweet, but they should already be served with another sauce. For example, with garlic-mayonnaise or garlic-tomato-sour cream, using available greens at hand.

In pumpkin pancakes, the recipe of which we already know, you can add diced onions, and if desired, you can even lightly fry it.

And for fans of "creative", try to add salted fritters cut into small cubes of frozen fat, it does not matter whether it is fresh or salty. Only in the second case, adjust the amount of salt added to the dough.

Of course, pumpkin pancakes, the recipe for which will be more dietary, if the flour is partially replaced with bran or ground oat flakes. You can use a manga or a Hercules. I would also like to note that the pumpkin can be successfully replaced by a tavern, especially in the salted version, practically, it will be invisible.

How to cook pancakes from a pumpkin , in each case the hostess decides. Just remember that the pumpkin is tasty and healthy for the body. It contains vitamins and minerals in such quantity that hardly any other product can boast of it. It is useful both for baby food, and for adults. Widely used in dietary nutrition, and the content of salts of iron, potassium, calcium, magnesium, copper, phosphorus, it simply has no equal.
