Maasa are a sweet treat from Mali made with rice flour and millet flour, the two most common grains in the region. I first learned about it when I spent a week cooking and learning about Mali for my Global Table Adventure. To me it tastes like a cross between a pancake and a doughnut - and is especially delectable with a glass of milk. More traditionally, Maasa is served fresh from roadside stands, hot from shimmering oil and blanketed in a cozy layer of powdered sugar. One bite in, and you’ll see why I couldn’t settle on a name; this is a yeasty, pancakey, biscuity, doughnuty treat – crispy on on the outside and doughy on the inside. These are definitely decadent - you'll want to invite friends over to help you eat them up! Note: the flours are available at natural grocers.
