Qatayef (Middle Eastern Stuffed Pancakes)

Batter

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup semolina
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp instant yeast
• 3 cups water

Directions

• Add all the ingredients to a blender, adding the baking soda last, and blend until smooth. There is no need to rest the batter.
• Preheat a nonstick pan to medium. Pour the batter into rounds, one after another. Don't add any oil to the pan.
• Cook until the tops are set and covered with bubbles and the bottoms are golden (cook on one side only).
• Fill with your choice of sweet or savory filling and pinch or fold closed.

NOTE: A traditional stuffed pancake found across many Middle Eastern cultures; the batter makes the classic bubbly shells, ready for sweet (nuts, sweet cheese, cream) or savory fillings. From Dainty Bite on Instagram.
