Step 1:
How to make dough for pancakes with holes? To prepare the pancake batter, prepare the necessary ingredients. Sift the flour a couple of times through a sieve. Eggs can be used of any variety. It is advisable to take milk slightly warmed up or at least at room temperature.
Step 2:
To prepare the dough, take a deep bowl in which it will be convenient to mix everything. Break the eggs into a bowl and add a little sugar. Shake them a little with a whisk.
Step 3:
Then add some vegetable oil and milk.
Step 4:
Gradually pour the flour into the bowl and knead the dough.
Step 5:
Extinguish the soda with vinegar and add to the bowl to the dough. Soda will immediately react with vinegar and thanks to this, the dough will be saturated with air bubbles.
Step 6:
The finished dough should be sufficiently liquid, homogeneous, without lumps of flour. It is from the liquid dough that pancakes with holes will be made. Bake them in a very hot frying pan. Before the first pancake, brush the pan a little with vegetable oil. Pour the batter into a hot frying pan and let it spread out in a thin layer. Cook the pancakes over medium heat, frying on both sides until golden brown.
Step 7:
Stack the finished pancakes on top of each other. Usually, I cover them with a lid so that they don't dry out. Ready-made pancakes from this dough are very tasty. Cook for your health!

Every housewife has her own special recipe for making pancakes. They can be on milk, kefir, fermented baked milk or yogurt. But in order for them to turn out with holes, the dough for them should be quite liquid. And the pan should be cast iron. It is such a frying pan that keeps the heat well. Therefore, on such a hot frying pan, the dough immediately goes into bubbles that make a pancake into a hole.
The recipe for making dough for such pancakes will not cause any difficulties. You can mix it manually with a whisk. But to speed up the process, you can use a mixer.

Be prepared for the fact that you may need more or less flour than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!
