Mix the flour, dry yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the warm milk, warm water, and egg, then whisk into a flowing batter that still coats the spoon.
Cover the batter and rest for 45 minutes, until bubbles form.
Heat the pan over medium heat, pour in a thin ladle of batter, and cook for 2 minutes.
Turn the cizlama and cook for 1.5 more minutes, then prepare the remaining batter the same way.
Brush the hot cizlama with butter and serve with breakfast items.
💡 Tip: Rest the batter for at least 45 minutes; if the griddle is too hot, the surface darkens fast while the inside stays rubbery.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Keep cizlama warm and serve on a breakfast tray with white cheese, honey, and strong tea if desired.
