Add the mixture to a bottle or measuring up with a pour feature (I used a bottle of honey) to make it easier when pouring onto skillet. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

Place a flat pan on high heat for a few minutes then lower to medium-low heat.

Once you feel the pan is too hot as you’re making them, you can lower the heat to low. ⁣

Place the finished pancakes on to a plate lined with paper towel and cover them with a kitchen towel so they remain moist. Once you finish the full batter you begin to assemble the atayif.
