BEGHRIR (MOROCCAN PANCAKES) image

Categories     Orange     Ramadan

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup warm water (115 degrees F/46 degrees C)
1/2 teaspoon active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup semolina flour
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon (or to taste / optional) orange-flower water

Steps:

  • Place the water, yeast, and sugar in a blender, and let stand without blending for 5 minutes, until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. Add the milk, flour, semolina flour, eggs, baking powder, and salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth, about 1 minute. Leave the mixture in the blender to rest for about 30 minutes.
  • Heat a 5-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Blend the pancake mixture for about 10 seconds, to remix, and scoop 1/4 to 1/3 cup of batter into the heated skillet. Cook the beghrir until bubbles have formed and popped, and the top of the pancake is no longer shiny, about 3 minutes. Do not flip. Adjust the heat as necessary so that the bottoms of the pancakes are just starting to brown when the tops are dry.
  • Blend the batter for 10 seconds or so after cooking 3 or 4 pancakes, to keep the batter fluffy.
  • To make the sauce, place the butter, honey, and flower-water flavoring in a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on High setting until the butter is melted and the honey is hot, about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Stir the sauce, and drizzle about 1 tablespoon over each warm pancake to serve.

The pancakes were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would use less oil next time.

These pancakes were a bit more time-consuming to make than I expected, but they were worth the effort. They're so light and fluffy, and the sauce is to die for.

Absolutely delicious! The pancakes were light and fluffy, with a slightly crispy exterior. The honey-butter sauce was the perfect complement, adding a touch of sweetness and richness. This is definitely a recipe I'll be making again and again.
