This was my first attempt trying out sourdough pancake and wanted to make it more like an apam balik (Malaysian Peanut Pancake). It has a crushed peanut and sugar filling.
I tried to do a healthier version that was not too sweet by reducing sugar/ omitting. I made 4. One plain (no added sugar), one with honey (no added sugar), one with banana (no added sugar) and the other with sugar syrup. Honestly I couldn’t taste too much of a difference besides the banana one.

It was really filling so Piglet and I had it for 2 meals.
