Qatayef (Stuffed Pancakes)

For the 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

  • Mix all the batter ingredients in a blender, adding the baking soda last, and blend. There is no need to rest the batter.
  • Preheat a non-stick pan to medium. Pour the batter in rounds, one after the other. Do not add any oil to the pan.
  • Cook until the surface is set and bubbled (traditionally cooked on one side only), then remove.
  • Fill with your choice of sweet or savory filling and fold. Enjoy as is, baked, fried, or air-fried.
