Make these delicious and fluffy Greek-style pancakes (tiganites) from scratch, in less than 30 minutes with ingredients you already have! Some Greeks believe the popular breakfast dish ‘tiganites’ was the first documented pancake in the world.

RECIPE

1 cup (120G) whole wheat flour
1 cup (235ml) water
2 tablespoons honey
¼ teaspoon salt
Some Olive Oil for frying
Optional Sesame seeds

1. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan.

2. Mix the salt into the water. Mix the salt water with the flour and honey and cover, letting it sit for 20 minutes.

3. Heat enough olive oil in a pan to cover the bottom. Pour in some batter and cook for one and a half minutes. Flip the teganites and cook for another minute or until fully cooked. Repeat until all the batter has been used, adding additional olive oil as necessary.

4. Serve hot with honey and optional sesame seeds.
