Mofo Gasy/Madagascar Yeasted Pancakes#EatTheWorld

Mofo Gasy (pronounced as muf gas)means "Malagasy bread", is a traditional breakfast from Madagascar, the large island off the southeast coast of Africa. It's also a common street food served as breakfast along with coffee/tea. Mofo gasy can also be made with coconut milk. Variations of the recipe occur based on the regions of Madagascar. On the coast, this bun is made from coconut milk and is known as mokary voanio or mokary coco. Mofo gasy is prepared with sweetened rice flour batter which is yeasted and cooked in greased circular moulds which ressembles quite like our own appe/aebleskiver pan.
