Pancakes are a very tasty dish. But gourmets' perception of the dish changes when consumed too often.

Over time, pancakes stop seeming so appetizing.

What to do in such a situation? You can give up making pancakes for a couple of months.

Or you can update the dish. Especially since there is nothing complicated about it: just one addition will suffice.

Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking, a chef and a fourth-class baker from the online publication Belnovosti, spoke about an interesting way to improve the taste of pancakes.

What to add to pancake batter

The secret ingredient that revives pancakes and makes them much more delicious is lemon zest.

One tablespoon of crushed top layer of lemon peel is enough for the entire pancake batter (3 eggs, 300 milliliters of milk, 100 grams of flour, 50 grams of melted butter).

Thanks to the lemon zest, the pancakes will acquire a light, pleasant sourness, which goes perfectly with sour cream, cottage cheese, condensed milk, and whipped cream.
