makes about 12 pancakes

  • 250 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder (or ½ tsp baking soda)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 250 ml lukewarm water (or as needed to make a smooth batter)
  • οlive oil or sunflower oil, for frying

For serving

  • honey
  • coarsely chopped walnuts
  • cinnamon

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt.
  2. Gradually add the water while whisking, until you have a batter that’s pourable but still thick enough to hold its shape. For fluffier pancakes, let it rest for 15–20 minutes.
  3. Warm some oil in a nonstick frying pan over medium. Using a ladle, pour small amounts of batter into the pan.
  4. Fry for 1–2 minutes on each side, until the pancakes puff up and turn golden.
  5. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the rest of the batter, adding a little more oil on the pan if needed.
  6. While still warm, drizzle with honey, sprinkle with coarsely chopped walnuts and cinnamon and serve.
