Moroccan Semolina Pancakes - Baghrir

Step 1

Add all dry ingredients to a medium-size bowl and mix.

Step 2

Add 700 ml lukewarm water to the dry ingredients and mix with a hand blender until smooth, for about 1 minute.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with a dish towel and allow to rise in a warm place for 15 minutes.

Step 4

Fill ¾ of a ladle with baghrir batter and pour carefully into the center of a small 15 cm (6 inch) diameter non-stick skillet. No need to grease the skillet first.

Step 5

The batter should spread to the edges of the skillet, but you can gently swirl it around too.

Step 6

Then heat the skillet over medium heat. Bubbles will start appearing on the surface of the baghrir as it cooks.

Step 7

Cook the baghrir on only one side for about 1 to 2 minutes or until the baghrir doesn't appear to look wet anywhere on the surface.

Step 8

Transfer the pancake to a plate and cover with aluminium foil to keep warm.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes with butter and honey, hot syrup or simply with any topping of your liking!
