ATAYEF (QATAIEYF) RECIPE !!! "Custard Pancakes"

Mix all-purpose flour, yeast, sugar, and salt in a bowl.

Gradually add warm water and milk, whisking until smooth.

Cover the batter and let it rise for about 30 minutes.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat until hot.

Pour small rounds of batter onto the skillet, cooking until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional minute until lightly golden.

Remove from the skillet and cover with a clean towel to keep warm.

In a separate bowl, combine ground walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon for the filling.

Take one pancake, place a spoonful of filling on one half, and fold it over to create a pocket.

Pinch the edges to seal the atayef tightly.

Repeat with remaining pancakes and filling.

In a saucepan, combine honey and rose water, heating gently until warm.

Fry the filled atayef in vegetable oil until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Drain on paper towels and drizzle with the honey mixture.

Garnish with crushed pistachios and powdered sugar before serving.
