Benefit
Once in the human body, liquid semolina literally envelops inner surface digestive system. It contains only 2% fiber and is recommended for dietary nutrition for people suffering from gastrointestinal disorders. This dish is also perfect for patients in the postoperative period, when the body is still weakened. Porridge gives strength and nourishes the body.
This is a carbon product with a rapid degree of absorption, giving maximum energy. Therefore, it is not advisable for adults to consume semolina and dishes from it in the first half of the day.
If we talk about vitamins: B1, B2, E, B6, then most of them are destroyed during heat treatment. Therefore, you should not hope that kefir, semolina and eggs will bring the same benefits to the body as if you ate them raw.
Why manna is not allowed for children under one year old
Semolina is coarsely ground wheat. The shell of wheat grain (bran) contains the substance phytin. This substance, entering the child’s gastrointestinal tract, completely binds all the calcium that ends up there. And it prevents calcium from being absorbed into the blood and incorporated into the bones. Therefore, it is not recommended to give it to children under one year old, and at this time the baby almost doubles in size. Also, this porridge should not be given as a first complementary food. Because in this way you can provoke rickets in children.
Mannik for the elderly
Unfortunately, this delicious pastries It is not recommended for older people, since it makes it difficult to empty the intestines and this contributes to constipation. In addition, semolina has a high glycemic index, which contributes to a decrease in glucose tolerance and the development of diabetes.
However, this applies to those people who consume semolina and dishes made from it regularly. Occasionally eating a piece of delicious manna with kefir won’t hurt.

To serve manna to the table, you don’t need, in general, anything other than a proven recipe and the desire to do a little more than is required - add a pinch of love, season with a handful of imagination, decorate with a drop of soulfulness. This is perhaps the most important thing you need to know about mannas. However, a little more information won't hurt.
- The correct technology for preparing manna with kefir involves 15-60 minutes, which are given to the cereal to swell. Pour, mix and set aside - all other stages can be implemented only after this mandatory point in the program.
- Classic manna cakes are cooked in the oven, however, this pie turns out great in a slow cooker, and even in a double boiler. To understand which option suits you best, try, compare and enjoy the one you like best.
- It is recommended to cut the manna only after it has completely cooled - otherwise you risk getting not beautiful, even pieces of the pie, but something half-collapsed. Of course, it is worth considering that in most cases, even cooled sliced manna will still not give an even cut, but at least the pieces will be neat.
- The average baking time for manna pancakes is 40 minutes, however, you need to focus not so much on the clock, but on appearance cake and its goldenness.
- Don’t be lazy to decorate the finished mannas - at least sprinkle with powdered sugar or cocoa using special stencils for cakes, and the appearance of the cake will be completely different.

One of the simplest, basic recipes for manna with kefir and flour can be implemented in a very interesting option- with chocolate balls. It is not only undeniably tasty, but also very beautiful and attractive.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup semolina;
- 1 glass of kefir;
- 1 cup flour;
- 1 cup of sugar;

Half white dough pour into a greased form, spread brown “balls” evenly over the entire area with a spoon, then cover with the remaining dough.
Bake in an oven preheated to 170-180 degrees for 35-40 minutes.
10 ideas on how to cook manna in an original and unusual way:
- Divide the dough prepared according to your favorite recipe into two parts, add cocoa to one of them. Place two or three spoons of light dough in the center of the greased form, then strictly in the center - two or three spoons of cocoa dough. Again there is clearly a light dough in the middle, again chocolate. Alternate until you run out of dough. If necessary, you can shake the mold slightly so that the mass “disperses” better. Bake like a regular semolina, cut and enjoy: you will get a wonderful zebra-like cut.
- Don’t be greedy, add berries to the dough - raspberries, currants, blueberries will very well “revive” the usual taste of manna and give it wonderful summer notes.
- If you have time and desire, you can decorate the manna with a “cap” of icing – for example, chocolate: melt a bar of “black gold”, add a little cream, pour the resulting ganache over the cake. Magically!
- Nuts, candied fruits, and dried fruits go perfectly with a pleasant, but rather simple-tasting manna dough. Enrich it and you will get especially wonderful pastries for tea.
- Mannik is a pie at its core, but who’s stopping you from turning it into a small homemade cake? Cut in half and soak sour cream or simple apple jam– and the taste will already be new.
- Divide the manna dough in half and color one part with food coloring or spinach, carrot, or blueberry juice. By pouring the dough into the mold one at a time, and then lightly mixing it with a toothpick, you can get a beautiful “marble” pattern after cooking.
- Semolina goes well with many spices, seasonings and herbs. Try adding cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom to the dough, combining them and mixing. Over time, you will find your perfect bouquet - maybe your personal “zest” will be lemon zest or ground cloves, a pinch of chili pepper or dried mint.
- Mannikas can also be unsweetened - cheese, ham, mushroom. They can be cooked with meatballs or pieces of fish, with broccoli or corn, bacon and olives. The main thing is not to be afraid; any experiment can lead you to unexpected discoveries.
- Shaped baking pans for pies are your faithful assistant in preparing original manna cakes. Pie-heart, pie-flower, pie-bear and pie-anything - you won't get bored.
- And if you prepare manna in the form of portioned muffins, you will get not only a delicious pastry for tea, but also a beautiful and convenient one: you can take it with you on the road, give it to your child at school, or take it as a snack to work.
To make a simple homemade pie so that it seems special, incredible and wonderful - special art, which is quite accessible to anyone who wants to learn. A little practice, a little experience, a couple of mistakes - and you will definitely have your own proven recipe for manna with kefir, which your friends will talk about, your household will dream about, and your girlfriends will gossip about.
Well, remember: as O. Huxley said, “to appreciate a pie, you need to try it, and not talk about recipes” - so grab a bowl and a whisk and get ready!
Is semolina healthy?
Recently it has become fashionable to argue that all generations of Soviet children who grew up on semolina porridge grew up incorrectly. Is it really an “empty” cereal that brings nothing? good topics who loves her? It is common to grumble about its high calorie content, great amount everyone’s unloved gluten, “extra” phosphorus compounds.
However, there are also advantages. In addition to the invaluable benefits in the form of the special nutritional value of semolina, there are other points that are worth mentioning. Firstly, one cannot ignore the fact that this cereal cleanses the intestines quite well, “working” as an absorbent and sandpaper at the same time. Secondly, you should love it for its phytin - a substance that normalizes the functioning of the stomach and improves the digestion process. According to recent studies, phytin also prevents the appearance of cancer cells in the human body. Thirdly, the presence of vitamins and minerals is also important - even if there are not many of them compared to other cereals, they are there, and it is completely unfair to simply discount them for the sake of newfangled trends.
In order for the wet, fairly heavy dough to rise and bake evenly, it is better to mix semolina with wheat flour. Having kneaded only with semolina, it is difficult to loosen and achieve an enviable height - such a manna with kefir will rather resemble a jellied pie.
In this case, the amount of semolina should not be less than the amount of flour. The best option for airy manna with kefir is to take equal amounts of cereal and flour. The simplicity of the kneading is also captivating. The whites do not separate from the yolks and do not whip into foam. You don't need a mixer either. Using a hand whisk or fork, beat the eggs as if for an omelet.
In addition to dried fruits, zest, vanilla, cinnamon, liquid flavors, and heat-resistant chocolate are added. Baking for the first time, doubtful about the full rise? Use a shape like this example, one that should be turned over. Decorative look will be provided, and judge the quality of the cut and the tenderness of the manna crumb on kefir from the photo step by step recipe below—I made it with raisins.
Preparation time: 90 minutes / Number of servings: 10-12 / Measuring cup 220 ml
Ingredients
- kefir - 1 tbsp.
- semolina - 1 tbsp.
- wheat flour - 1 tbsp.
- sugar - 2/3 tbsp.
- eggs - 3 pcs.
- vegetable oil - 3 tbsp. l.
- baking powder - 7 g
- raisins - 100 g
How to cook manna with kefir and raisins
We wash the raisins and put them in boiling water - after 15-30 minutes we put them on a sieve and let the water drain.
Pour semolina into kefir (fat content at your discretion), mix and leave aside at room temperature for 15 minutes, maximum half an hour. Small grains swell quickly and there is no point in waiting more than 30 minutes. In order not to bother with the dosage, not to weigh and measure each product, it is convenient to use a large glass. I have a volume of 220 ml.
As usual, for kefir-based manna, take equal proportions of semolina, kefir, flour and sugar (sugar can be reduced by a third, as in my recipe). For three eggs standard size A 220mm capacity is quite enough. If you reduce the number of eggs (the dough is suitable for portioned/small products), then divide the base volume (220 ml) accordingly.
Beat granulated sugar (plus flavorings) with eggs - use a whisk/fork to quickly and circularly, combine the whites with the yolks. Immediately pour in the vegetable oil (refined vegetable oil), continue shaking until smooth for 1-2 minutes.
We transfer the fermented milk “porridge” (semolina swollen in kefir) - stir again, stir until smooth.
Sprinkle the dried raisins with flour (1-2 tbsp from the indicated glass) - cover them on all sides with a layer of flour. Do the same with dried cranberries or cherries. Cut large dried apricots and prunes into four to six pieces, crush the nuts from large fragments to crumbs.
Throw powdered raisins and flour mixed with baking powder into the almost finished dough. Suitable for this baking with cereal: baking soda(as well as homemade baking powder made from baking soda, flour and citric acid). Do not forget to sift the soda so that the breasts do not leave bitterness.
Grease a heat-resistant container with a thin layer of fat (any kind), sprinkle with flour and shake off the excess - bring the kefir manna dough to a viscous texture, remove all lumps.
Fill the mold and place it in a pre-heated oven for about 40-50 minutes, bake until dry at 180 degrees. We do not open the oven door for the first 15-20 minutes, otherwise we risk reducing the heating and precipitating the semi-finished product ahead of time.
Cool, carefully separate from the walls, turn over and remove. Cover with powder, glaze or fondant - it's up to you.
Homemade manna with raisins is ready. Cut into slices and serve. Bon appetit!
From childhood, everyone remembers the words “...scraped the bottom of the barrel,...kneaded the dough...”.

Coconut-raspberry manna recipe

Ingredients:
- semolina - 1 cup
- flour - 1 cup
- coconut flakes - 1.5 tbsp. spoons
- sour cream - 1 glass
- sugar - 1 glass
- chicken eggs - 2 pcs
- baking powder - 1 tbsp. spoon
- vanilla sugar - 1 pack
- raspberries - 1.5 cups
How to prepare coconut-raspberry manna: to start, take 2 medium eggs - put them in a bowl and beat with a mixer (on average speed) until foam forms.
Add sugar, sour cream and beat everything thoroughly with a mixer again. Next, add vanilla sugar, sift the flour and baking powder directly into the dough and mix thoroughly.
Add semolina and coconut flakes. Now you need to let the dough stand for a while so that the semolina swells and the dough thickens.
Meanwhile prepare the mold. If you have a silicone one, you don’t have to lubricate it. Cover with Teflon or other parchment paper and grease with oil, then sprinkle with a little semolina.
Place in pan and level with a spatula. Now let's do the raspberries. If you have it fresh (when it’s in season), wash and dry it. If frozen, then defrost and dry a little.
Place the berries on top of the dough. Bake the manna for 35-40 minutes in a preheated oven at 180 degrees. Allow the manna to cool slightly in the mold (about 30 minutes). Carefully remove the cake from the mold and transfer to a plate.
- When preparing bulk dough, it is important to maintain the same ratio of liquid and solid ingredients. Remember:
- Flour, cocoa, semolina, starch - dry ingredients;
- Sugar, eggs, honey, butter, milk or sour cream, fresh berries consist mainly of water, so they are considered the liquid part of the dough.
- Manna dough, as a rule, should have the consistency of sour cream. This is a pourable dough, and the principle of its preparation is similar to preparing a sponge cake. You can add eggs to it without beating, but if you beat them first and carefully add them to the dough, trying not to precipitate the foam, then the manna will be more fluffy and tender.
