Kitchen know-how

Tips for Pancakes with apple sauce

Let the dough rest for at least 15 minutes

During the rest, the flour absorbs liquid and small clumps dissolve. The pancake dough becomes more supple and tears less frequently when turning.

Check consistency before baking

The dough should run thinly from the ladle and cover the pan easily. If it is too thick, add tablespoons of milk.

Resetting the pan temperature

The first pancake shows the right heat: the dough should be set quickly, but not immediately darkened. Then keep the temperature constant.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Replace 100 millilitres of milk with highly carbonated mineral water and stir in it only after rest. This makes pancakes a little lighter.

Place some very thin apple clefts on the still moist dough per pancake. After turning, cook completely at a little less heat.
