The lace pancakes taste incredibly fluffy, soft and so delicious. This is thanks to the kefir batter with baking soda. You can make them at home with just a few common ingredients. They are ideal for breakfast or dessert. You can find a detailed lace pancake recipe with the exact quantities and step-by-step instructions below.
Eye-catcher with a pretty lace pattern
When these pancakes are cooked in the pan, lots of little holes form on one of their sides. This looks like a lace pattern. This is why the pancakes were given this name.
Heavenly fluffy thanks to kefir
In contrast to the blini batter, the batter for the lace pancakes is prepared with kefir, similar to the batter for the oladi. Baking soda is also added.
These two ingredients are not just responsible for the pretty lace pattern. They also make the pancakes taste incredibly fluffy and soft.
Alternative for kefir
I used homemade milk kefir for the lace pancake recipe, just like for the kefir cookies recipe, the chocolate whoopie pies recipe or the Red Velvet Cake recipe. Alternatively, you can also use buttermilk.
How to serve lace pancakes
The lace pancakes taste delicious on their own, with sour cream, with sweetened condensed milk, with jam and the caramel sauce. You can serve them for breakfast or dessert. They are delicious both warm and cold.

How to make lace pancakes: tips and tricks

- Add the hot milk to the egg kefir mixture in a thin stream while stirring continuously to prevent the eggs from setting.
