Semolina pancakes cooked on one side only, rising into a lace of open holes that soak up butter and honey.
⏱ 80 min total🔪 15 min prep🔥 25 min cookMediumServes 6Moroccan
Ingredients
- •200 g fine semolina
- •100 g all-purpose flour
- •2 tsp active dry yeast
- •1 tsp baking powder
- •500 ml warm water
Directions
- 1Blend the semolina, flour, yeast, baking powder, a pinch of salt and the warm water until completely smooth.
- 2The batter should be thin, closer to cream than to pancake batter.
- 3Cover and rest forty minutes until the surface is covered in bubbles.
- 4Heat a dry non-stick pan over medium heat. Do not oil it.
- 5Pour in a ladle of batter and leave it entirely alone as holes open across the surface.
- 6Cook two to three minutes until the top is dry and matte. Never flip it.
💡 If holes do not appear, the batter is too thick. Whisk in water a spoonful at a time and test again before blaming the yeast.
