Ingredients
  

Sponge Ingredients (Overnight or Same Day)
  • 250 grams soft white wheat
  • 125 grams hard white wheat
  • 600 grams buttermilk
  • 100 grams active sourdough starter 150 grams if using discard
Batter Ingredients
  • 32 grams sugar
  • 4 grams salt
  • 4 grams baking powder 6 grams if using discard
  • 4 grams baking soda
  • 2 eggs yolk and white sperated
  • 70 grams cooled melted butter
  • 8 grams vanilla
  • 7 grams maple syrup
  • 5 grams apple cider vinegar

Method
 

Same Day Method
  1. Mix the sponge ingredients and let sit for one hour.
  2. To the sponge add the sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  3. In a separate bowl mix the egg yolks, melted butter, vanilla, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Add this to the sponge.
  4. In another bowl whip the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold this into the batter.
  5. Cook on a griddle preheated to between 350℉ and 375℉. Drop about a 1/4 cup per pancake onto the griddle. Let cook for a few minutes until edges are set. This is a thicker batter, so there won't be as many bubbles as you may be used to. Once edges are set flip and cook a few more minutes on the opposite side.
  6. Serve pancakes warm with optional toppings. Favorites in our household are syrup, powder sugar, whipped cream, and mini chocolate chips.
Overnight Option
  1. Mix the sponge ingredients and let sit at room temperature overnight.
  2. The next morning add the sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda to the sponge.
