Fluffy pancakes made with whey
Description
Pancakes are a very popular breakfast dish, and they are easy to make and cook faster than crepes. To make fluffy pancakes using whey, you can buy ready-made whey at the store (luckily, it's not hard to find nowadays). However, if your milk has soured, you can use this homemade whey instead. I usually set aside part of it to make homemade cottage cheese, and use the leftover whey for pancakes. Serve them cooled or slightly warm.

Sift the flour into a deep container. Sifted flour becomes enriched with oxygen, and as a result, the baked goods turn out even more delicious.
