Ingredients:
- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk or kefir
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (for frying)
- Optional toppings: sour cream, jam, honey, or fresh berries
Instructions:
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk or kefir, eggs, and sugar until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. The batter should be thick and lumpy.
- Heat the Pan:
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of vegetable oil to coat the surface.
- Cook the Oladyi:
- Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet, spreading slightly with the back of the spoon to form small, round pancakes.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve:
- Serve the oladyi warm with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, jam, honey, or fresh berries.
