Golden brown pancakes stuffed with creamy filling and topped with crushed nuts.

For the Pancake Batter
 2 all-purpose flour
 1 tsp baking powder
 1 tsp sugar
 1 cup water
 1 cup milk
 1 tsp salt
For the Filling
 2 ricotta cheese
 ½ cup pistachios, finely chopped
 ¼ cup powdered sugar
 1 tsp vanilla extract
For Serving
 1 cup honey or simple syrup
 ½ cup crushed nuts (pistachios or walnuts)
Preparing the Pancake Batter
1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the water and milk, whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Let it rest for about 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.

Making the Filling
2

In another bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and chopped pistachios. Stir until well combined and set aside.

Cooking the Pancakes
3

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour a ladle of batter onto the skillet, forming small pancakes (about 3-4 inches in diameter). Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Transfer to a plate and cover with a kitchen towel to keep warm. Repeat until all the batter is used.

Filling and Folding
4

Take each pancake and spoon a tablespoon of the filling onto one half of the pancake. Fold the pancake in half to create a crescent shape, pressing the edges together to seal. Repeat with all pancakes.

Serving
5

Serve the stuffed pancakes warm, drizzled with honey or syrup, and sprinkle with crushed nuts for garnish.

Notes
