Apple Stuffed Pancakes

These apple stuffed pancakes of Arabic origin attracted my attention first of all with their shape, then with their simple ingredients and way of preparation. In the end, they conquered us all. The fragrant apple filling and the delicious coating were such a perfect and beautiful combination.

Of course, you can try any other filling. I only cooked two apples which weren't enough, so I filled the last 4-5 pancakes with diced bananas. However, the apple ones were the star.

Step 5

Heat well a frying pan and brush with oil. This is only for the first pancake, I don't use any more oil after that.

Pour the batter with a larger spoon or a smaller ladle, half full. After the first pancake, you'll know exactly how much you need for a medium-sized pancake, not giant, but not too small either.

The ideal diameter would be 7-8cm.

Make a medium-low heat and notice how the pancake starts to cook.

When there is no liquid at all on the surface, it's done.

Bake only on one side!

Step 13

When you've finished shaping all the pancakes, place the sheet in the preheated oven at 200 degrees C for 10 minutes.

After baking, you'll notice they are a bit firmer and crispier on the outside. Initially, I thought not to bake them in the oven. But actually, this is their charm, they are crispy on the outside, soft and fragrant on the inside.

In addition, they are very easy to eat with your hands, they keep their shape well after baking.
