👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar (part of total added sugar), salt (part of total salt), egg, milk, vanilla extract, and instant yeast until smooth. Let the batter rest for 1-2 hours at room temperature, covered.
2. Just before cooking, add baking soda dissolved in a little water to the batter and stir well.
3. Heat a heavy-bottomed non-stick pan or a dedicated martabak pan over medium-low heat. Once hot, pour a ladleful of batter into the center, swirling gently to coat the sides slightly for the characteristic crispy edge.
4. Cover the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes until small bubbles form on the surface and pop, creating a honeycomb texture. Sprinkle some sugar (part of total added sugar) evenly over the surface.
5. Continue cooking uncovered for another 1-2 minutes until the base is golden brown and the top is set. Remove from the pan and immediately brush with melted butter.
6. Generously drizzle with sweetened condensed milk, then sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles, chopped peanuts, and grated cheese. Fold the martabak in half, cut into portions, and serve warm.
