Preparation

1. Prepare the yeast dough:
Combine lukewarm water, dry yeast and sugar in a large bowl. Add oil, wheat flour and rice flour and knead into a soft, slightly sticky dough.

2. First rise:
Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 60 minutes until doubled in size.

3. Knead & second rise:
Briefly knead the dough again, cover and let rest for another 30 minutes.

4. Mix the filling:
Combine sugar, nuts and cinnamon in a small bowl.

5. Shape & fill pancakes:
Divide dough into small balls, flatten slightly, add 1–2 teaspoons of filling, seal and gently press into flat discs.

6. Pan-fry:
Lightly grease a non-stick pan and fry the pancakes over medium heat until golden brown on both sides and the filling is melted and caramelized.
