Скачать или смотреть Learn to Make the Best Honeycomb Pancakes

Baghrir or beghrir, is a semolina pancake consumed in Morocco, as well as the whole Maghreb region (North-West Africa). They are small, spongy and referred to as honeycomb pancakes for a reason.

I made Baghrir three different ways in this video, using yeast and baking powder separately, as well as combined. The results are very interesting and visualize the differences in structure very well!
Moreover, we used a 2:1 semolina vs all-purpose flour ratio. By the way, semolina is referred to the coarse, purified wheat middlings of durum wheat (mainly used in making pasta).

If you never had Baghrir before, we insist that you try our super easy and quick-to-make Moroccan pancake recipe!

INGREDIENTS
lukewarm water [500ml + 100ml for yeast activation]
fine semolina [200 g]
all purpose flour [100 g]
dry yeast [2 tsp / 7 g]
sugar [1.5 tsp / 7 g]
baking powder [1 tbsp / 13 g]
salt [1/2 tsp / 3 g]
honey [3 tbsp / 50 g]
butter [3 tbsp / 50 g]

Yields 10-12 "super-Baghrir" pancakes.

1. Combine yeast and sugar in 100ml luke-warm water (ca. 38C or 100F) and let rest/activate for 15 minutes.
2. Start preparing the Baghrir batter, for which you will need a (hand-)blender. Pour the water into the blending container and add the semolina, all purpose flour, as well as salt. Give a quick mix with spatula and incorporate the activated yeast-liquid and baking powder next, before blending on medium-low speed for a minute.
3. Let rest for 10 minutes, which will result in fluffier semolina pancakes.
4. Grab a non-stick pan and place it over medium-high heat. Once the surface of the pan is on temperature, pour in a ladle of the batter.
NOTE: Make sure that your pan doesn’t start to smoke, those gases could be hazardous, released by the overheated non-stick coating. Moreover, the first pancake never works out beautifully. So simple set aside and try again.
5. Bubble for bubble, the pancake should end up with hundreds of holes of different shapes and sizes. DO NOT flip the pancake! Give it a swivel and set aside once the bottom is slightly browned, which should take approximately 1-2 minutes.
6. Continue ladle for ladle and use up all the batter, which should yield 10-12 semolina pancakes, depending on your ladle and pan-size. Set all pancakes aside.
7. Turn off the heat and, in the hot pan, melt the butter and combine well with the honey, which should take less than a minute.
8. Pour some of the honey-butter sauce over each pancake

Bon appétit!
