Ingredients

Before you cook

Steps

  1. Combine the semolina, all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, salt and baking powder in a blender.
  2. Add the lukewarm water and blend for 1 minute until completely smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into a bowl, cover, and let it rest in a warm spot for 20 minutes until bubbly.
  4. Heat a nonstick pan over medium-low heat with no oil.
  5. Ladle a small round of batter into the pan without spreading it.
  6. Cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes until bubbles rise and burst across the surface, leaving tiny holes, and the top looks dry.
  7. Remove the pancake without flipping it; it cooks on one side only.
  8. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the finished pancakes on a plate.
  9. Drizzle the warm honey butter generously over the stacked pancakes just before serving.
