Tiganites: Greek Pancakes

Printable Recipe:https://www.dimitrasdishes.com/tiganites-greek-style-pancakes-with-greek-honey-baklava-nuts/

Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
vegetable oil for frying
Topping:

honey
1 cup ground walnuts
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Instructions
Combine the yeast, sugar, water and a teaspoon of the flour in a large mixing bowl. Set aside for 8-10 minutes to activate the yeast. The yeast is active when a puffy cloud foms in the water.
Add the remaining flour, salt, and vanilla extract to the yeast mixture.
Whisk it together until the batter is smooth.
Set the b atter aside for 20-30 minutes.
Combine the walnuts, cinnamon, and cloves in a bowl and mix together. Set aside.
Place a frying pan over medium-high heat. Pour enough oil into the pan to coat the bottom and create a thin layer. Heat the oil to about 370 F.
Add about two tablespoons of the batter (per pancake) to hot oil and cook the tiganites until they're golden all around.
Line a plate with paper towels and place the tiganites on it to drain the excess oil.
Serve them warm and toped with honey and the walnut mixture.
Notes
Optional toppings: Nutella or your favorite chocolate hazelnut spread, jam or preserves, maple syrup, or any of your favorite pancake toppings.
