Experienced housewives have their own secrets on how to cook this dish properly. The problem with pancake fluffiness can be caused by several factors.

Before mixing the dough, keep the ingredients at room temperature. Cold eggs and yoghurt can affect the airiness of the pancakes, making them whipped.

It is also important to leave the dough for 20-30 minutes after kneading. If you start frying the pancakes right away, they may turn out tough.

Don't forget to add yeast, baking soda or baking powder. These ingredients will allow the dough to rise well.
