Here’s a recipe I’ve been making for over 30 years. I first made it from my mother’s Betty Crocker Cookbook, which she gave me a copy of for my wedding. When my children were young, they loved to pull stools all around the kitchen counter and “help” me make this, which mostly consisted of smushing…

These pancakes have a pleasantly sour flavor from soaking the whole wheat flour overnight. These pancakes cook more slowly than either unsoaked whole grain flour or white flour pancakes. The texture will be chewy and the taste pleasantly like sourdough. Serve with melted butter and raw honey, maple syrup, or homemade applesauce. Soaked-Flour Pancakes 2…

My Bible
