Moroccan Baghrir Pancakes

Try these delicious pancakes riddled with holes that soak up the syrup! Baghrir, made from a frothy batter, are also known as "1,000-hole pancakes." They're wonderful to eat: the syrup sinks into all those little holes instead of running off and making a mess, so the pancakes stay juicy and full of flavor. You can swap the honey syrup for fruit preserves, sweetened condensed milk, jam, or any topping you love. Tender, airy as a cloud, and fluffy! The hallmark of a Moroccan pancake is its pale, un-browned color and its spongy, porous, lace-like texture.

  • BATTER: 1. Dissolve the yeast in the water. 2. Add all the batter ingredients except the baking powder. 3. Blend everything in a blender. 4. Add the baking powder and blend just 2 seconds more. 5. The batter should have the consistency of thin sour cream. 6. Cover the batter with plastic wrap and let it rest in a warm spot for 30 minutes. 7. Stir the batter again. PANCAKES: 8. Lightly oil a skillet and heat it well over medium, then lower the heat. 9. Pour a little batter into the center of the pan using a measuring ladle. 10. Cook the pancake on one side only — don't flip it; it's done when there's no wet batter left on top. 11. Once the top is dry and no longer sticks to your finger, lift it off the pan. SYRUP: 12. Stir the honey into the melted butter. 13. Mix until smooth. TO SERVE: 14. Drizzle the syrup over the pancakes and serve them hot. Enjoy!
