Baghrir[1] or beghrir (البغرير) is a pancake consumed in the Maghreb region. They are small, spongy, and made with semolina or flour; when cooked correctly, they are riddled with tiny holes (which soak up whatever sauce they are served with). The most common way to eat baghrir in Algeria and Morocco is by dipping them in a honey-butter mixture,[2] but they can also be cut into wedges and served with jam. It is common to add raisins to the pancake as well. Baghrir is popular for breakfast, as a snack, and for iftar during Ramadan.[3]
