Honeycomb Yeast Crepes Beghrir Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Stir together the flour and yeast in a mixing bowl.
• Add the egg, then slowly pour in the water while stirring. Then beat until a smooth batter is achieved, the consistency of heavy cream. Set aside for 1 hour.
• Oil a griddle or heavy frying pan and heat over a medium heat.
• Pour about 3 tbsp of batter into the pan, rotating the pan so the batter flows evenly over the surface. Cook until bubbles appear and burst on the surface and the underside is light golden brown.
• Serve immediately or transfer to a large plate and keep warm while frying the remaining batter. *A heat proof plate atop a pot of simmering water should work well.
• Arrange the crepes in an overlapping circle around the plate, rather than stacking them as this makes them tough.
• Serve warm with melted butter, and warm honey flavored with orange-flower water, trickled over.

Steps:

• Mix the sugar with the warm water then add the yeast. Stir until well mixed then set aside in a warm place for 5-10 minutes, or until bubbly.
• Mix the water & milk together & let it sit out until lukewarm. Beat the eggs & then add them to the milk mixture.
• Sift the flour, semolina, & salt into a large shallow bowl. Slowly pour half the milk mixture into the flour, stirring constantly by hand until well mixed.
• Add the yeast mixture to the dough & beat vigorously by hand in order to air it and to eliminate any curds. Add a little more of the milk mixture from time to time, until the batter is runny smooth (like thick cream). Cover with a towel & set aside to rest for 1-2 hours. (The longer you lest the batter rest the more holes will be in the pancakes).
• When ready to cook, rub your pan with a paper towel that has been dipped in canola oil & then heat over medium-low heat.
• Gently stir the batter then pour 1 small ladle (3-4 tbsp) onto the pan, smooth into a perfect circle with the bottom of the ladle, & cook until bubbles appear over the surface of the pancake & all trace of raw dough disappears. You do not want to bottom to turn brown so if you need to you can turn it over for a second or two to finish the top side.
• Place the pancakes in a large heatproof shallow bowl in overlapping circles and keep them warm until ready to serve. Do not stack them or they will be liable to stick together.
• Heat the butter and honey with water in a pan. Simmer for 5 minutes then place in a small serving bowl.
• Drizzle the honey mixture over the beghrir & then roll it up. Eat with your fingers & have fun -- .
