Step 1
In a blender, combine 1 cup semolina, 1/2 cup flour, 1 tsp yeast, 1 tbsp sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1.5 cups water. Blend until smooth, about 1 minute.
Step 2
Let the batter rest for 10 minutes at room temperature; it should be thin like heavy cream.
Step 3
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup batter and cook without flipping until the surface is covered with holes and looks dry, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the pancake to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve warm with honey or butter if desired.
