Apple pancakes with water
Description
Perfectly pairs with tea and coffee. This recipe is suitable for fasting. If you're not fasting, you can prepare the pancakes using buttermilk, kefir, or milk instead of water. I had buttermilk on hand, so that's what I used. If you're making pancakes with water, you should still prepare a starter, then knead the dough. Nothing changes (except the base). The result is a completely fasting-friendly dish that is not only delicious but also filling. The baked goods are ready. Serve at the table.

Step 1
1. Since I don't observe Lent, I used sour milk instead of water. Originally, this recipe was shared with me by a woman who always observes Lent and works at a church. These little pancakes can be made not only with apples but with any fruits you like.
