Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Dough rising time 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings 16 oladi

Equipment

  • coated pan with lid

Ingredients

  • 250 ml water lukewarm
  • approx. 300 g flour**
  • 20 g sugar**
  • 12 g fresh yeast
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • vegetable oil for baking

Instructions

  • Dissolve fresh yeast and sugar in lukewarm water.
  • Add salt and flour in batches and mix to form a viscous dough.
  • Stir the dough for about 5 minutes and let it rise covered in the mixing bowl in a warm place for 40 minutes. Then stir it briefly and let it rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Put plenty of vegetable oil in a coated pan and heat it over medium heat.
  • Add about 1 tablespoon of dough per pancake to the pan, greasing the tablespoon with a little vegetable oil each time beforehand if necessary.
  • Bake the vegan oladi with the pan lid closed over low to medium heat, first on one side, then on the other, until golden brown. Keep adding vegetable oil as needed.

Notes

  • Instead of fresh yeast you can use dry yeast. For the recipe you need 9 g of it.
  • The amount of flour indicated may vary. Add the flour to the other ingredients in batches until the dough becomes viscous. It should slowly melt in the mixing bowl after being "collected" with a spoon in the center of the bowl into a ball-like shape.
  • Keep carefully wiping off the liquid formed on the pan lid with a kitchen towel so that it does not get into the pan. Otherwise, hot vegetable oil will splash and you could get burned.
