SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs.
• In a separate bowl, add sugar, salt, baking soda, and water and mix until incorporated. Add to beaten eggs. Add Sourdough Starter to mixture and beat with wooden spoon. Do not beat too long.
• Spoon on griddle in 1/4 cup amounts. When bubbles appear on top of pancakes, turn over. Cook until golden brown.
• In a large bowl, combine the water, yeast, and honey and mix well. Add the flour and mix until all of flour is incorporated. Cover with a towel or loosely with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place overnight. Refrigerate.
• When using the starter, remove 2 cups to use for the pancakes. Add 2 cups flour and 2 more cups warm water to the starter. Cover and refrigerate. If you don't use your starter for more than 3 days, it needs to be fed. Remove 1 cup and discard. Add 1 cup flour and 1 cup warm water, cover and refrigerate.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Tip all the ingredients, except the butter, oil and maple syrup, into a bowl with a large pinch of salt, and whisk well until you have a thick, smooth batter. Whisk in the melted butter.
• Heat a splash of oil and a small knob of butter in a non-stick frying pan until sizzling. Pour or ladle the batter into the pan, making 7-8cm pancakes, with plenty of space between them (you should fit three pancakes in at a time). The batter should sizzle a little as it hits the pan, but not aggressively - adjust the heat if you need to. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface, then flip and cook the other side - they should take roughly 2 mins on each side. Eat straight away or keep warm in a low oven while you cook another batch. Serve with maple syrup.

TRAPPER JOHN'S GEN-U-WINE SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• The night before, take a cup of sourdough starter out of refrigerator and add unbleached white flour, whole wheat flour, sugar and water. Mix ingredients well, cover and place in warm place overnight. The next morning, remove cup of the ?sponge-like? starter and return to refrigerator.
• To the remainder, add beaten eggs, oil, and milk. In small bowl, mix wheat germ, salt, sugar and baking soda. Stir dry ingredients into batter and mix until well blended. Let sit for 10 minutes. Preheat griddle, grease with butter and pour batter onto griddle. Turn pancakes over as soon as bubbles begin to pop. Flip over for just a few seconds and remove pancake from grill to heated plate. This recipe may be doubled.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the yeast and the warm water. Allow the mixture to rest (and allow the yeast to dissolve) in a warm area of your kitchen, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour and sugar. Set aside.
• In a pot or saucepan over medium heat, heat the milk until it is warm. Do not simmer or boil. Remove the milk from the heat, add 3 tablespoons of the butter and pour into a bowl to cool it slightly before mixing with the other ingredients.
• Stir the yeast and water mixture and gently whisk in the flour and sugar. Finish by whisking in the milk mixture. Cover the bowl with a layer of plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place to rest for about 1 hour. What to look for: After about 1 hour (maybe a little longer) the batter should increase in volume and be somewhat "bubbly" in appearance. Cover and refrigerate until the next morning.
• Remove the batter from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. When ready, whisk in the eggs and salt.
• Heat a large cast iron pan (or, if preferred, a griddle). Melt 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter. Spoon the batter. Cook each pancake for a couple of minutes until you see bubbles on the surface. Flip on the second side, cooking for another minute. When done, place them on a plate, keeping them covered with foil in the oven until you build up a batch.

GREEN APPLE-SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Make the sourdough starter: Warm the milk in a small saucepan over low heat to about 110 degrees F. Transfer to a medium bowl, sprinkle with the yeast and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the cider, brown sugar, butter and 1 cup flour until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature overnight.
• The next morning, make the pancakes: Whisk 1/2 cup flour, the egg, baking soda and apple into the sourdough starter. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a cast-iron griddle or nonstick skillet over medium heat and swirl to coat. Pour about 1/4 cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until the tops are bubbly and the edges set, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook until golden and cooked through, 1 to 2 more minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter as needed. Drizzle with syrup and garnish with pecans, if desired.
