If you notice the batter is too thick, add water slowly until you have a thinner, liquid consistency. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel, place inside a microwave or a warm place and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. Preheat a non-stick pan. Once the pan is hot, pour ¼ cup batter into the pan, let it cook until you notice bubbles forming on the surface, it is no longer wet and the bottom is a light golden brown colour. Do not flip on the other side. Remove and lay the pancakes bubble side up on a large plate or baking sheet, be careful not to stack them on top of each other as they will stick together. You may want to cover the pancakes with a towel to keep them moist while you make the rest. Method: Filling Allow the pancakes to completely cool before filling. Gently crush the nuts using a mortar and pestle or using your fingers until you form smaller pieces. In a small bowl combine the filling ingredients together. Put a small amount of nut mixture into the centre of a cool pancake. Fold the pancake in half and pinch the sides firmly with your fingertips to seal. Wetting your fingers can help you get a tighter seal. Place each pancake on a baking sheet side by side. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Bake for 5 minutes on each side or until they are a crispy, golden-brown colour. Remove from oven and drizzle with date syrup (optional) or some crushed nuts.
