Whey Pancakes

If you have left over whey from making ricotta cheese (see earlier blog), or any other cheese making, don't throw the whey away (hey hey). It is highly nutritious and can be used for cakes, soups or anything else that requires liquid. Whey can be stored up to 3 months in the freezer.

Here is one of many ideas on what to do with the left over whey.

Whey Pancakes

1 cup flour

1 cup whey

1 egg

2 tablespoons sugar (I used my vanilla sugar - see earlier blog)

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoon oil or melted butter

How to:

Mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Set a side.

Mix whey, egg and oil until well incorporated, whisk in the flour mixture just until they combine. Do not over mix.  

Cook in a pan or skillet until golden brown.
