Days are delicious as we head towards Spring. Every branch, every bough is growing new leaves. Some tiny, some curled, but each unfurling a new and fresh shade of green and adorning the naked branches.
Our flower beds promise a great riot of colours in the coming days. Dahlia buds are all ready to open up. Gazania shows its mesmerizing hues and shade, each unique in its own way.
Earlier in the morning, some food was kept for the birds. Soon we had two Oriental White Eyes enjoying the fruits kept for them.
Our home is full of lovely yeasty aroma are pancakes are being made for breakfast. Fluffy pancakes land on the plate. A generous amount of peanut butter is lashed, some honey drizzled and the pancakes disappear in no time.

Oooh. Yeasty pancakes sound delicious! I've used sourdough starter discard, but never yeast. I definitely must give these a try.

ReplyDeleteThank You Priya!
DeleteThanks for this excellent recipe. My wife and I are following a very low sodium diet, so I was looking for a pancake recipe that did not use baking soda or baking powder. I used your recipe and left out the salt. I also used 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 1/2 cup of white rather than all whole wheat. The result was delicious for us. Leaving out he salt had no adverse affect on the texture. So, as we have found with most recipes, leaving out whatever salt they call for does nothing but make the result taste less salty. People who have not acclimated their taste to a low salt diet would notice the difference, but for us, it was great.
