Kefir Pancakes

Kefir pancakes are a great way to use up extra kefir and give your pancakes delicious flavor and texture. I don't always make pancakes, but when I do, I prefer these kefir pancakes with chocolate chips. I love traditional pancakes, but kefir gives these an extra dimension of fluffiness. When making these pancakes, I also highly recommend experimenting with various flavored kefirs, such as strawberry or pomegranate. Enjoy some orange juice or a coffee with these.
