Pancakes according to Dukan: delicious

The Dukan diet is now very popular. This is not surprising, because the effectiveness of its use is really high: many women and men were able to lose excess weight using this weight loss technique.

The diet is divided into 4 stages, the first of which is called “Attack”. During this short phase, only protein is allowed (fish in any form, meat, eggs, dairy products with 0% fat). Despite the fact that at first glance this stage may seem difficult, during these 1-10 days you are allowed to treat yourself to a delicious dish - pancakes. Thanks to Pierre Dukan and his thoughtful nutrition system, you have a large selection of food recipes. The main thing is that their ingredients fit the conditions of the “Attack”.

If you wish, you can cook just pancakes, but if you want to try something original, you can add filling to the pancake - the dish will acquire a new taste and significantly diversify your diet.

Attack: pancakes

The Dukan diet is divided into specific stages. And the first of them is Attack, which is quite tough. But even there you can treat yourself to delicious pancakes. The attack is characterized by rapid weight loss, and all this in tandem with pancakes. Well, isn't it great?

Grocery list:

a pair of chicken eggs;
a couple of tablespoons of low-fat curd or cottage cheese;
double rate of skim milk;
20 gram shot of boiling water;
a tablespoon of bran, which needs to be ground into flour;
sweetener to taste;
half a teaspoon of ripper.

How to do:

Using a mixer, beat the eggs into a fluffy foam.
Pour milk and liquid sweetener into them in a thin stream, whisking continuously.
Now it’s time to add cottage cheese. Beat until lumps disappear.
Mix the bran with the cultivator and add it to the main mass.
Without stopping whisking, pour in boiling water.
Let it stand for a quarter of an hour and you can start baking in a dry Teflon pan.

Effective diet

Dr. Dukan's nutrition program has been known for many years and during this time has gathered many followers. A French doctor developed a diet based on restricting carbohydrates. Protein products become the basis of nutrition, and fats are strictly limited.

As a result, the process of ketogenesis starts in the body. It is based on the processing of fat deposits into energy, which is used by the body for normal functioning. When you eat as usual, energy comes not from fat reserves, but from carbohydrates eaten with food.

The diet consists of four stages. Each of them must be completed to ensure sustainable weight loss and prevent weight gain in the future.

The attack is the initial stage that prepares the body for the diet and starts the process of ketogenesis. At this time, you can only eat protein foods. The stage lasts from 2 to 7 days - the duration depends on the initial weight.
Alternation or Cruise is the stage when excess weight is lost. At this time, vegetables, mushrooms and some additional foods (ADOPs) are added to the diet. The alternation mode can be selected to suit you (1/1, 2/2 or 5/5). The main thing is that the number of protein days is equal to the number of protein-carbohydrate days.
Consolidation is a stage designed to consolidate the results obtained. You need to switch to it after you reach your desired weight. At this stage, the body gradually comes out of the diet and prepares for normal nutrition. At this time, some high-carbohydrate foods, such as fruits, are added. At the Consolidation stage, one feast per week is allowed - a day when you can eat everything you want in one meal. The duration of the stage is calculated individually: 10 days for each kilogram lost.
Stabilization is the final stage that must be followed throughout your life if you want to stay in the shape you have achieved. At this stage, one protein fasting day per week is introduced. There is also a slight restriction on food during the week.

With bran and more...

Those losing weight according to Dukan know exactly their daily intake of certain foods. For this recipe, three such products are used: corn starch, skim milk powder, and oat bran. Therefore, you need to be careful not to go too far according to your norm.

Grocery list:

a couple of tablespoons of oat bran;
half a tablespoon of corn starch;
a tablespoon of skim milk powder;
egg;
one and a half 50-gram shots of kefir;
water;
sweetener and flavoring to taste;
a pinch of salt;
a little ripper.

How to do:

Using a fork, beat the chicken egg with salt and sweetener until smooth.
Due to the fact that the pancakes are made with kefir, they turn out tender. Add it and mix. We introduce the ripper.
Add bran and mix again, let it swell a little. A quarter of an hour will be enough.
Mix starch and milk powder. Add them to the main mixture. If it turns out to be thick, add a little water to give it the desired consistency.
Bake in a hot Teflon pan without using any fat. Do not make them too large, otherwise there is a risk of tearing them when turning them over.

Semi-finished products from the store - are they allowed according to Dukan?

Often, while following the Dukan diet, the question arises: “Why specifically prepare something by purchasing low-fat, low-calorie foods? After all, ready-made semi-finished products can be purchased in the store, which just need to be heated.”

However, factory-made preparations are completely unsuitable for the strict Dukan diet. In addition to the fact that they contain large quantities of prohibited substances, such as sugar and animal fats, processed foods can harm digestion. After all, it is during a strict diet that the body is especially vulnerable and needs a balanced menu. Therefore, if you decide to treat yourself to pancakes, feel free to go to the store, but not to purchase frozen ready-made goods, but to buy dietary ingredients.

Diet pancakes are a great way to diversify the Dukan diet menu

Starch: pancakes with and without it

Traditional pancakes contain flour, which is not allowed on the Dukan diet. And most often it is replaced with starch in order to give the dough the necessary consistency. But sometimes you can do without it, you just need to add a mixture of bran to the recipe. These pancakes are perfect for filling them with meat with or without vegetables.

To prepare them, you need to mix the following products into a homogeneous mass and bake them in a dry frying pan:

a couple of tablespoons of oat bran;
a tablespoon of wheat bran;
half a teaspoon of ripper;
egg;
a pinch of salt;
a couple of tablespoons of kefir;
a tablespoon of soy isolate;
a tablespoon of bran flour;
water is needed to give consistency.

The recipe with starch is simpler. And most often, the products listed below are available at home in almost everyone losing weight according to Dukan.

For it, mix the following products and bake:

egg;
a pinch of salt;
sweetener for sweet pancakes;
a couple of tablespoons of cornstarch;
ripper on the tip of the knife;
one and a half 100 gram shots of kefir;
a third of a 100-gram shot of boiling water.

Baking without extra calories

This will seem strange to many, but on this diet you can eat various sweets and even pancakes. Yes, not quite standard products are used to prepare them, because flour and sugar cannot be consumed on this diet. But believe me, properly prepared pancakes are practically indistinguishable from “real” ones.

Attention! You can eat pancakes at all stages of the Dukan diet. It is only important to choose the right recipe so that it contains acceptable products. At the same time, do not forget to monitor the number of additional additives in the resulting dish, if they are there.

Pancakes with milk

These pancakes are very tender and are an excellent solution for a quick snack or breakfast. And with them your figure will not suffer one bit. The main thing is not to go over the daily allowance of acceptable but limited foods. And if this rule is followed, then your favorite delicacy will become available even for daily consumption.

Grocery list:

a couple of teaspoons of skim milk;
six teaspoons of skim milk powder;
two large chicken eggs;
a third of a sachet of ripper;
one and a half teaspoons of corn starch;
a pinch of salt;
sweetener optional.

How to do:

Mix dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, beat milk and eggs.
Combine both mixtures. Stir and leave to swell for a quarter of an hour.
Fry in a hot and dry frying pan.

It turns out very tasty if you fill them with curd or meat filling.

How to get the most beautiful and delicious pancakes

Not a single dish can be prepared without practical advice from knowledgeable housewives, because it is better to learn from the mistakes of others than to struggle to correct your own (some tips are described in the previous article “Why pancakes turn out dry and brittle”).

That is why I offer you a few more simple recommendations that will help you make delicious homemade pancakes even better.

Pancake maker instead of a frying pan

To bake Dukan pancakes with cornstarch, it is recommended to use not a frying pan, but a thick-bottomed pancake pan made of cast iron or stainless steel.

Frying pans can only be taken with non-stick/Teflon coating or cast iron.

Pancake base

You can make pancakes from corn starch not only with regular milk and kefir.

Often the base for pancakes is milk powder and low-fat cottage cheese, sometimes the bases are combined (milk + cottage cheese, kefir + milk powder, etc.). From such food bases, baked goods are no less tasty.

Pancake filling

Various ingredients can serve as filling.

You can fill pancakes with:

cottage cheese, grated with sweetener and diluted cow's milk;
grated (low-fat) cheese with pepper and garlic;
puree made from stewed pumpkin and many other ingredients.

Choose the filling at your discretion, just try to keep it dietary.

Every housewife can make Dukan pancakes with cornstarch. This easy-to-prepare dish will be a salvation in the difficult process of losing excess weight. But in everyday life there is always a place for such a treat, because pancakes with Dukan starch are not only dietary, but also healthy.

I wish you successful and delicious pancakes!

Protein isolate for pancakes according to the Dukan diet

A low-fat, cholesterol- and carbohydrate-free powder consisting of almost 90% protein, obtained by ion exchange and microfiltration from various protein products, is called protein isolate (not to be confused with simple protein).

This component also has a green light in Dukan recipes, because it is very, very useful for a protein diet:

Doesn't count as an extra!
The amount of isolate consumed is not limited by diet, but doctors do not advise exceeding the daily intake of 60 g;
Allowed from the attack stage for baking, as an additional source of protein and as a complete and carbohydrate-free starch substitute;

Well, now, armed with such chic helpers as isolate and gluten, we can start baking the most delicious Dukan pancakes at home.

Useful tips

Have you chosen the right recipe? The following tips will help you avoid problems during cooking. To ensure that Dukan pancakes delight you with their rosy appearance and taste, follow the following tips.

Use only hot water to prepare the dough, this increases the stickiness of the starch.
Let the dough with starch sit for a short time, this will improve the appearance and taste of the finished pancakes.
Dissolve the starch in salted water, this will help avoid the formation of lumps.
Bran, even finely ground, settles to the bottom of the mass. Stir it often.
Excess salt prevents the dough from fermenting and the pancakes turn out pale.
For baking, it is better to use a pancake maker. It has a thick bottom so it doesn't get too hot.
When choosing a baking pan, give preference to utensils with Teflon coating.
First sprinkle a regular frying pan with salt, wipe it with a cotton cloth, and only then grease it with a small amount of oil.
Use a brush to grease the pan to reduce oil consumption.

With chicken fillet

This recipe can be used at all stages. Turn 600 g of chicken fillet into minced meat, add grated onion, seasonings, and salt. Beat 2 eggs, pour in 150 ml of “zero” milk. Thicken the mixture with corn starch (60 g). Fry in a hot, lightly oiled frying pan for 4 minutes on each side (form the pancake directly in the frying pan, spreading the mixture with a spoon).

Pancakes without bran according to Dukan have a pleasant taste, are easy to fry and are quickly eaten. When preparing pancakes, pay attention to the correspondence between the recommended daily allowances of starch (gluten) and the amount of products used in the recipe.
