“It's a sugar bomb. Coca-Cola has about 6 tablespoons of sugar per glass. Add flour – we get a glucose hit to the pancreas. Even just like that, “Cola” is a drink with a composition that is difficult for the body: sugar, phosphoric acid, flavorings. And when heated in a frying pan, these components react with flour and eggs – the consequences for the body from such a “set” are not the best.”
Experts urged not to experiment on the body, and if you want delicate pancakes without harm to health, it is better to add mineral water with gas to the dough.
I just shared the recipe for pancakes with mineral water innutritionist Krasnoyarsk Regional Clinical Hospital Ilya Yushkov. Its peculiarity is the absence of milk.

Need aboutSeparate the white from the yolk and beat the white to a strong foam, and the yolk with salt. Then mix the beaten egg whites and yolks, add sugar. You should get a light air mass. You need to carefully pour mineral water into it and the mass will foam. Continuing to beat, add flour in several additions. Then add vegetable oil, beat again and leave the dough to “rest” for 20-30 minutes. You need to bake pancakes in a well-heated and greased frying pan in the usual way. If the dough is too thick, you can thin it a little with water.
