Still, instead of citrines, it is possible to use dried plums or dried apricots, reduced to small pieces.- The pancake dough is ready.

The advice OK
It is advisable to prefer a pan with high sides to make sure that the pancakes have enough space to toss and turn in the oil.
For optimal cooking, it is also recommended to cook a few pancakes at a time: in this way, it will be easier to keep the temperature constant.- The pancakes will be ready when the surface appears golden (2-3 minutes).

Yogurt fritters are sweet foods, therefore rich in sugars; this feature makes them unsuitable for diabetic nutrition. Furthermore, since they are fried foods, they are also particularly rich in fatty acids which give them an energy value that is not suitable for dieting against overweight. Yogurt Fritters are NOT foods to be consumed frequently and the average portions must be between 30 and 60g (75-150kcal).
