Mahlouach Yemenite Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together the flour, water, oil, vinegar, salt, and sugar. Knead lightly for about 10 minutes. Cover with a towel and let rest for 30 minutes.
• Divide the dough into 6 pieces and roll out 1 piece to a 9 by 9-inch square. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the butter over the surface (more butter will make the finished bread richer and more flaky). Fold the dough in half to form a rectangle. Repeat with the remaining 5 pieces of dough. Pile the rectangles on top of each other, cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Roll each piece again to a 9 by 9-inch square and fold in half. Stack, cover, and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Repeat this procedure 3 more times. After the final fold, wrap the pieces in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Roll out each piece of dough to a 9-inch circle. In a 9-inch frying pan with a lid, heat the remaining tablespoons of butter over a medium-low flame.
• Place 1 dough circle in the pan, cover, and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the dough over, cover, and cook another 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining dough. (You will not have to add more butter for frying, as the raw mahlouach are already quite buttery.).

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• In another bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and vanilla.
• Melt the butter in a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium heat.
• Whisk the butter into the milk mixture. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture, and whisk until a thick batter is just formed.
• Keeping the skillet at medium heat, ladle about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet, to make a pancake. Make 1 or 2 more pancakes, taking care to keep them evenly spaced apart. Cook, until bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, and the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook about 1 minute more on the second side. Serve immediately or transfer to a platter and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
• Procedure for adding fruit to pancakes: Once the bubbles break the surface of the pancakes, scatter the surface with sliced or diced fruit, or chocolate chips, nuts, etc. Flip with a spatula and cook for 1 minute more, being careful not to burn toppings.

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, baking soda and nutmeg in a large bowl. Combine the eggs, buttermilk and vanilla in a medium bowl. Add the wet ingredients and the butter to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a thin layer of butter. Add 1/3-cup scoops of batter to the skillet, allowing an inch of space in between each pancake, and cook until the bubbles rise to the surface and pop. Flip and cook until browned on the other side. Keep warm in the oven until ready to serve. Add a thin layer of butter to the skillet before making each batch.
• For the cinnamon sugar: Combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
• For the glaze: Combine the powdered sugar, vanilla, salt and 2 tablespoons buttermilk in a bowl and mix together until smooth. It should be thick but pourable; if it's not pourable, add additional buttermilk little by little to thin it out.
• Serve the pancakes with a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar and a drizzle of glaze! Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for a day or two.

Steps:

• Beat egg until fluffy.
• Add milk and melted margarine.
• Add dry ingredients and mix well.
• Heat a heavy griddle or fry pan which is greased with a little butter on a paper towel.
• The pan is hot enough when a drop of water breaks into several smaller balls which 'dance' around the pan.
• Pour a small amount of batter (approx 1/4 cup) into pan and tip to spread out or spread with spoon.
• When bubbles appear on surface and begin to break, turn over and cook the other side.
