Pancakes with peanuts filling or also known as Apam Balik, is a popular snack in Malaysia. The pancake is typically crispy, lightly sweeten with sugar, peanuts, and cream corn. Well, do try this simple and wonderful snack :)
Pancake With Peanuts Filling
Ingredients
Batter
200 g All Purpose Flour
100 g Rice Flour
1/2 tsp Sea Salt
2 tsp Double Action Baking Powder
2 Eggs, light beaten
100 g Sugar
200 ml Water
Filling
200 g Roasted Peanuts, coarsely ground
100 g Sugar
200 g Can Cream Corn
3 - 4 Tbsp Salted Butter
Method
In a bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, rice flour, sea salt, double action baking powder, eggs, sugar and water. Wrap the bowl in a plastic wrap and refrigerate for 5 hours or overnight.
Lightly oil a small non-stick pan or a crepe pan (about 5 - 6 inches diameter) over a moderate heat. When the pan is hot, add about 3-4 Tbsp batter, evenly coating the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, as the batter sets and forms small bubbles, loosen the edges with a palette knife. Sprinkle some sugar and peanuts on top of the pancake. Continue to cook until the pancake is light golden brown in color. Then top it with 1 tsp of butter and some cream corn. Lift the pancake from the pan, fold into half and serve immediately.
Note: You should get 12 pancakes.

i love this form of pancakes. thanks for the recipe. will definitely try it this weekend
@Cindy Khor: You're welcome:)
I tried making this earlier tonight but it turned out to be like dough so I added some water to it. Was water missing from the recipe?
@Doreen: My mistake, missed out the water. I have amended the post. You should add about 190 to 200 ml of water. Sorry and thanks for the feedback:)
Great...thanks.
I added about 7 oz water to the mix. I'm making it tonight so will let you know how it turns out :)
Batter did out turn out the way it was supposed to be. I wondered if it's because I added to much water to it? I added more water because I thought the batter was still too thick.
@Doreen: The batter should be fairly thick.
Should I sieve the batter?
@Doreen: You don't have to sieve the batter. Just make sure the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
beautiful post! this reminds me of the hawker stalls that sell the small "pancakes" prepared in cast iron forms. ...I always loved the peanut and red bean ones!
Thank you so much for posting this! I had these from a hawker stall & had no idea what they were. Now I can make my own to tide me over until I can make it back to Malaysia! :-)
