1.5 cups whole milk
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 eggs lightly beaten
2 Tbsp melted butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
Notes/Story: Mix vinegar into the whole milk in small dish and add to whole wheat flour in big glass mixing bowl. Cover and place in a warm spot for 12-24 hrs.
Then add rest of ingredients and make into pancakes on griddle.
"Because they are acidic, buttermilk, cultured milk, yoghurt and whey (as well as lemon juice and vinegar) activate the enzyme phytase, which works to break down phytic acid in the bran of grains. Sour milk products also provide lactic acid and lactobacilli that help break down complex starches, irritating tannins and difficult-to-digest proteins. Soaking increases vitamin content and makes all the nutrients in grains more available. This method has the further advantage of so softening whole meal flour that the final product is often indistinguishable from one made with white flour." - Nourishing Traditions (where I found the recipe)
