How to Make Petoules Pan Fried Honey Pancake

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, milk, water, sugar, egg, and baking powder until a thick batter forms, similar in consistency to pancake batter.
  2. Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Once the oil is hot, pour 1-2 tablespoons of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake (adjust amount depending on pan size). You can cook several pancakes at once, leaving enough space between each.
  4. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Watch carefully to avoid burning. Flip when bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges look set.
  5. As the petoules cook, remove them from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
  6. Once all the petoules are cooked, drizzle generously with honey, then sprinkle with cinnamon and powdered sugar.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, delicious Greek honey pancakes!
