Variety of sweets in the post can be no less than in the usual menu. Due to the availability of various substitutes for animal products, you may not even notice how the lean weeks will run. That's why we decided to put together some lean desserts that can become worthy alternatives to favorite treats prepared with the addition of eggs, butter and milk.
Lenten dessert from fruit - recipe
During the post period, the counters are not famous for a wide variety of ripe fruits at affordable prices, but we propose to use the fruits for the season, for example, apples. With them we will prepare pancakes for breakfast.

Actually, the process of cooking these pancakes is similar to the usual, but instead of the usual egg, a linen egg is used here, prepared from ground flax seeds, filled with a quarter cup of hot water and left for 5 minutes.
Cut the apple. Mix the dry ingredients of the dough and add water, a flaxseed egg and apple slices to it. When the dough is brought together, use an oiled and heated frying pan to fry it. A dessert of apples can be served with syrup or apple jam.
