    Mix all ingredients in a blender or hand mixer and let it proof for at least half an hour.

  • Step 2

    Heat the pancake grill to 350F and start ladling small amounts (circular shapes) to create a small pancake looking qatayif.

  • Step 3

    As soon as the all the bubbles are gone and doesn’t look doughy at the top, remove from the grill and place on a piece of napkin. Do not stack them on top of each other because they will stick together. As soon as it cools and while your waiting for the others, pinch one side of the qatayif to create a cone shape. Place ashta, cream, or gammar (Iraqi ashta) inside and top with ground pistachios. Top with attar or serve it on the side.
