Application Guide

To make the pancakes, the next morning, add the eggs, maple syrup or
honey, oil, baking soda, baking powder, and salt to the sponge. Plug in the
machine, program for the Dough cycle, and press Start. Watch the mixing for
a few minutes. Press Stop as soon as the batter is ready. Do not overmix; the
batter should be smooth yet have small lumps. Press Stop, unplug the ma-
chine, and you are ready to make the pancakes.
Heat a griddle or heavy skillet over medium heat until a drop of water
skates over the surface, then lightly grease it. Pour the batter onto the griddle
using a 14-cup measure. Sprinkle with some berries, if you like. Cook until
bubbles form on the surface, the edges are dry, and the bottoms are golden
brown, about 2 minutes. Turn once, cooking the opposite sides until golden,
about 1 minute more. The second side will take half the amount of time to
cook as the first side. Serve immediately with maple syrup, or keep warm in
a 200°F oven until ready to serve.
