Prepare all the ingredients for pancakes on kefir with boiling water and holes. I used kefir with 2.5% fat content. It should be at room temperature, so take it out of the refrigerator in advance. You can add a small amount of vanilla extract, lemon or orange zest, cinnamon, or other flavorings to the batter according to your taste.

Break the eggs into a bowl, add salt and sugar, and start whisking with a whisk until smooth. If you don't have a whisk or a mixer, you can use a hand blender or an immersion blender to beat the eggs with salt and sugar.

Pour kefir into the mixture, stirring constantly, until a homogeneous mass is obtained. To make it easier to pour the kefir into the batter, use a measuring cup or pitcher with a thin spout. This will help control the flow of kefir and avoid splashing. The kefir should be at room temperature to better combine the ingredients and make the pancakes more delicate.

While continuing to stir, add boiling water to the batter in a thin stream.

Add flour and baking soda to the batter. Then add vegetable oil after mixing. Continuously stir the batter while adding all the ingredients. For pancakes with holes, the batter made with kefir and boiling water should be liquid. It is recommended to sift the flour before adding it to the batter to remove lumps and make the batter more homogeneous. There is no need to extinguish baking soda with vinegar, as kefir will perform this function, and the batter will have bubbles.

To fry the first pancake, grease the pan with vegetable oil. Stir the batter with each new pancake, as it will settle. If the batter becomes too thick, you can add a little kefir to achieve the desired consistency. Using a large spoon or ladle, evenly pour a small amount of batter onto the heated pan and spread it so that it completely covers the bottom of the pan. When frying pancakes, it is better to use a non-stick pan to prevent them from sticking to it. The heat should be medium. Reduce it if the edges of the pancake start to burn quickly while the center remains raw.

Flip the pancake as soon as the center solidifies, and fry the second side until golden brown. To make the pancakes the same size, it is better to use one measuring spoon. If you are making a large quantity of pancakes, it is recommended to use two pans simultaneously. This will reduce the cooking time. Tip: To keep the pancakes warm until serving, you can preheat the oven at a low temperature and place the cooked pancakes on a baking sheet inside. This way, they will retain their warmth and not cool down. Alternatively, you can cover a plate of cooked pancakes with another plate on top and wrap it in a towel.

The pancakes on kefir with boiling water and holes are ready. They go well with various fillings such as berries, cheese, spinach, mushrooms, chicken, cottage cheese, condensed milk. Experiment with different filling options and choose your favorite:)
If you have leftover pancakes, layer them on a plate, cover with plastic wrap or foil, and put them in the refrigerator. This way they will keep for a few days. Or you can freeze them, it won't affect the taste.
