Tips
- Add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dough for extra flavor.

- Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your pan.
Questions
- Can I use other fruits? Absolutely! Pears, strawberries, or any fruit you like will work.
- Can I use kefir instead of yogurt? Of course, plain yogurt can also be used, but kefir adds a tangy taste.
- Can I make the batter in advance? It’s best to use the batter fresh for the softest pancakes, but you can prepare it a little ahead of time.
- How to reheat leftovers? Use a toaster oven or a conventional oven for a few minutes to reheat.
- Are these pancakes gluten-free? Yes, they are gluten-free because they don’t use flour.
Enjoy your delicious, flourless pancakes!
