Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, semolina, instant yeast, sugar, and baking powder.
-
Gradually add the milk, water, rose water, and orange blossom water to the dry ingredients. Mix well until you have a smooth batter.
-
Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
-
In a separate bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground cardamom for the filling.
-
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Pour a small ladleful of the batter onto the pan to form a small pancake.
-
Cook the pancake until bubbles form on the surface, then flip it over and cook for another minute.
-
Remove the pancake from the pan and place it on a plate. Spoon a small amount of the walnut filling onto one half of the pancake, then fold it in half to form a half-moon shape.
-
Repeat steps 5-7 with the remaining batter and filling.
-
Garnish the filled pancakes with crushed pistachios and drizzle with honey.
-
Serve the Ataif pancakes warm and enjoy!
