Wolfgang's Breakfast Pancakes

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	396g / 13oz	Eggs - separated (large)
1/2 cup	118ml	Sour cream
1/2 cup	118ml	Non fat milk
1/2 cup	99g / 3.5oz	Unsalted butter - (4 oz) - melted
1/2 cup	31g / 1.1oz	Pastry flour
1/2 cup	31g / 1.1oz	All-purpose flour
1 tablespoon	15ml	Sugar
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt

Recipe Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, sour cream, milk, and melted butter.

In a large bowl, sift together the pastry and all-purpose flours, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the center, pour the egg-yolk mixture into the well, and whisk just enough to incorporate into the dry ingredients.

In a clean bowl, with a clean whisk, beat the egg whites until shiny and firm, but not dry. Stir a little into the batter, then fold in the remaining whites.

Heat the griddle and butter lightly. Over medium heat, using a 1/4-cup measure, pour the batter onto the griddle. When each pancake is golden brown on one side, and small bubbles appear on the surface, turn with a wide spatula and brown the other side. As the pancakes are cooked, transfer to a tray lined with a clean towel and keep warm in a low oven.

Arrange 3 or 4 pancakes on a warm plate. Serve with warmed pure maple syrup or fruit syrup. Garnish with a few slices of seasonal fruit and serve immediately.

To make fruit syrup, combine 1 part fruit (blueberries, sliced strawberries, or any other berry, sliced peaches, or plums) with 3 parts maple syrup and a little grated orange rind. The fruit can be pureed, if desired. Serve warm.

This recipe yields twelve 3 1/2-inch pancakes.
