Ahouifi M'semmen - Moroccan Pancakes

2 pounds flour

2 1/2 cups water

1 Tablespoon salt

butter for frying

vegetable oil for kneading as needed

powdered sugar for topping

cinnamon - optional

 

 

 

 

 

Combine flour and salt in a large mixing bowl. Add

water a little at a time, mixing with hands.

 

On an oiled surface (helps a lot to oil up your hands

too), knead the the dough until smooth. Rip off pieces

of dough and roll to form golf-ball sized balls.

 

When all dough is made into balls (about 15 to 20

balls), press the balls down with your hand and then

stretch dough until it is very thin. Fold in the edges

to form a 3 or 4 inch square.

 

On a buttered skillet at medium high heat, cook each

square until both sides are browned.

 

We like to sprinkle with sugar right away (sometimes

cinnamon and sugar). You can also brush with honey.

 

Serves 10

AuthorNote: For a special treat, fold special fillings

into your squares. Ground nuts and sugar is wonderful.

My youngest likes Nutella.

 

ChupNote: Ahouifi M'semmen is a Moroccan flaky flat

griddle cake.
