In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, mix the egg and sugar, beat until light and pale in color.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients, add in water and stir until you have a smooth batter.

Lastly, add in butter and vanilla, cover and rest the batter for 30 minutes.

Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.

Pour a ladle of batter into the pan, swirling it around to coat the bottom evenly. Cover and cook until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown.

Add your desired filling on the pancake - crushed peanuts, sugar, sweet corn, creamed corn, and a bit of butter if you like.

Fold the pancake in half, covering the filling, and press it gently. Cook until both sides are golden brown and the inside is cooked through.

Repeat the process for the remaining batter.

Serve your Apam Balik warm and enjoy!
