Soaking the flour in kefir gives it a bit of tang, breaks down the fiber present in the grain, and even lends a bit of lift due to the naturally present yeasts in kefir. Use the simple base recipe to create a multitude of variations. Add fresh or dried fruit, tossed in flour so they don’t sink, and gently mix into the batter. Or add nuts or chocolate chips for something special.

Organic Milk KefirGranules are live probiotics in the form of soft, jelly-like ‘grains’. They are grown in milk, thus giving it their name. The term "kefir grains" describes the look of the culture only, but they aren’t actually grains.
When healthy and fed, these grains will continue to grow and multiply.
Milk Kefir has many health benefits and is one of the richest sources of probiotics!
Just one pouch of grains will culture 4 cups every day. Drink it up, or enjoy your Kefir in smoothies, ice cream, baked goods, and other recipes.
