Many people have probably encountered this common situation: pancakes first begin to rise actively, and then suddenly lose their volume.

This problem occurs because the recipe was not chosen quite correctly.

What secrets will help to avoid such an unpleasant situation?

Essential Ingredients for Volume

In order for the pancakes to rise, you should pay attention to the important ingredients. As a rule, the choice falls on yeast.

You can also add soda. If you are making pancakes with milk, you need to add an acidic component to the soda. Most often, the choice falls on vinegar.

Temperature of components

It is important to remember that the pancakes will only turn out fluffy if the ingredients used are at the right temperature.

Therefore, they need to be left in the kitchen in advance so that they have time to warm up.

Don't cook the pancakes right away.

Don't rush to put the dough in the frying pan: the pancake dough doesn't like this approach. Experienced housewives wrap the bowl with the dough in a terry towel and wait for half an hour.
