Ingredients
  

  • 185 ml water
  • 35 g sugar $0.051
  • 1 large egg $0.20
  • ½ tsp baking soda $0.026
  • ½ tsp instant yeast $0.07
  • 150 g plain flour $0.33

FILLING

  • 100 g peanuts coarsely ground ($0.73)
  • 50 g sugar $0.073
  • melted butter

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, add water, sugar, egg, baking soda and instant yeast. Mix well using a whisk. Add plain flour and mix evenly. Allow batter to rest for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight in chiller. This will result in a fluffier pancake.
  • Mix coarsely ground peanuts and sugar together. Set aside.
  • Heat a 20cm frypan over medium-low heat and apply a thin layer of butter onto pan. Once pan is hot, add a ladle of pancake batter and spread batter evenly. If you want a thicker pancake, add more batter.
  • Let pancake cook until bubbles appear on surface. Cover pan with lid and cook until surface is slightly dry.
  • Remove lid, then add melted butter, ground peanuts and sugar onto pancake. Cover with lid and cook for another minute.
  • Once cooked, use an offset spatula to fold pancake into half. Remove from pan and serve.
