Beghrir, also known as million hole pancakes, is one that reminds me of early mornings before school. My Moroccan grandmother made these often during her stay in the states.

Instructions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, stir together the tahini, maple syrup, orange blossom water, and cinnamon. Add a dash of salt, to taste (this will help enhance the sweetness).

Step 2

By stirring together the tahini and maple syrup, the mixture may emulsify and become thicker than wanted. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to thin if needed.

Step 3

Set aside to make the million-hole pancakes!

Step 4

In a large bowl, add the semolina flour, all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Mix until combined and set aside.

Step 5

In another bowl, whisk together warm water and the yeast.

Step 6

Add the yeast-water mixture gradually to the dry and whisk until combined. Alternatively, you can add all of the to a blender and pulse until combined. The batter should be very similar to crepe batter or heavy cream.

Step 7

Transfer the batter to a large bowl (enough room for the batter to rise) and cover with a kitchen towel. Place the bowl in a warm area and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Step 8

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Using a ⅓ measuring cup, spoon the Beghrir into the pan. Do NOT swirl the pan as this will cause a crepe-like pancake to form.

Step 9

The batter should spread out on its own and begin to bubble within the first 15 seconds. Don’t flip the beghrir as it usually cooks on one side. The Beghrir is done when the top of the pancake is dry to touch.

Step 10

Lay the pancakes on a clean kitchen cloth and cover with another one to keep warm prior to serving.

Step 11

Beghrir can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 week or in the freezer with parchment paper in between each pancake.

Step 12

Serve with melted butter, honey, and flaky salt or with Orange Blossom-Tahini Glaze. Garnish with fresh fruit that is seasonally available.
