Vodka Pancakes
Vodka pancakes offer a unique twist on traditional pancakes, where the vodka not only adds flavor but also contributes to the lightness of the batter. The alcohol evaporates during cooking, resulting in pleasantly airy and fluffy pancakes. This recipe is inspired by Russian and Eastern European cuisine, where vodka is often used in desserts and pastries. It is a perfect choice for a special breakfast or as a dessert, served with sour cream and fresh berries.
