Instructions to make Apam Balik - Asian Pancake:
  1. For the batter - place all ingredients in a big mixing bowl. Mix & whisk everything until well combined with no lumps. Cover bowl with a cling film & leave to rest for 30mins in warm place.
  2. After 30mins, the batter should be foamy & almost double its volume. Give it a whisk before using.
  3. Cooking - brush some unsalted butter onto a preheated pan. Give batter a whisk before using. For a standard size pan, Pour 3/4 cup of batter on a preheated pan. If using small pancake pan, pour only 1/4 cup of batter (small one is better). Next, swirl & spread batter evenly using the back of the ladle or just tilt your pan in circle motion. Cook over low heat with lid on for 1-2mins until bubbles are formed. Use the lowest heat or your batter will burn.
  4. Remove the lid. Sprinkle sugar generously (use grated palm/coconut sugar for a distinct flavour), coarsely ground peanuts & few tsp of creamy sweet corn. Put the lid back on again & let it continue cooking until it's fully cooked. This wont take long so it’s best to not overcook.
  5. Remove the lid. Put tiny slices of butter (optional). Run a spatula all around the edges to release it from the pan. It should come out easily. Fold it in half and serve.

Heat a nonstick pan and add a ladle of batter. Cook for a while then add the banana slices. Cover the pan to cook the apam. Apam Balik or Ban Chien Kuih or Peanut pancake is one of the popular local delicacies in Malaysia. The only Apam Balik version that I like is.
