Not really pancakes, more like a kid-version cross between crepes and flatbread, these make a great vehicle for dips or pizza.

Assemble "Pancakes"
  1. Using a rolling pin, flatten one of the balls of dough into a circle about 7 inches across.
  2. Brush ¼ teaspoon sesame oil onto the round of dough. Sprinkle a pinch of salt onto the round of dough Then spread the oil and salt around with your fingers to completely coat the round.

  4. Fold the round in half and then fold in half again. Roll into a ball with your hands.

Cook the "Pancakes"
  1. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Spray with cooking spray.
  2. Add one of the dough circles to the pan and cook on one side for 4 minutes or until the bottom side is browned (don’t be scared to take a peek underneath with a pancake turner to lift the edge).
  3. Flip the pancake over with a spatula or pancake turner. Cook the other side for about 4 more minutes or until the bottom is browned.
  4. Remove your pancake to a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven to keep it warm while you cook the remaining dough circles.
