If the pancakes start to tear during the cooking process, then they were clearly not cooked quite correctly.

If you correct these shortcomings, the pancakes will bake without any unpleasant “surprises”.

What are the most common mistakes?

Lack of water in the dough

Not everyone knows that the use of dairy and fermented milk products when working with the dough does not have the best effect on the quality of the dough.

It turns out to be too dense, which leads to negative consequences. Therefore, do not forget to add a little water.

Sugar

Excess of this component can ruin pancakes. If you add too much sugar to the dough, the pancakes will tear and stick to the pan during heat treatment.

The maximum amount of sweet ingredient should not exceed two spoons.

Oil

Any experienced housewife adds this component to the dough. Thanks to this, the product becomes homogeneous. Also, the pancakes will not stick to the dishes.

As a rule, only one spoon of vegetable oil is introduced.
