One thing I always do at the start of the week is check on "wity" to see if she's doing well. If you don't know what wity is, I'll explain a little. She's a large living creature, a microbe that I grow in this small container. She lives and will continue to live, as something I love, and will produce something from flour.
This is a natural yeast commonly called sourdough. Every time I want to make something from flour, I use it, and it's incredibly beneficial in making food. Even foods that need leavening, wity helps it rise, like bread.
However, this time I really want to make something. I prefer want to make bread, but I discard it cause I left it at room temperature for too long. So, what I going to make? Pancakes, of course, but I want to make them higher in protein.
I make chocolate pancakes. I happen to have pea protein with a really delicious chocolate flavor. I make them slowly, but I only a vague recipe, so I just went with my gut feeling.
- 170 grams of flour
- 170 ml of water
- 30 grams of sourdough starter
- 1 egg
- 40 grams of pea protein
- Pinch of salt
- 20 grams of butter
- Honey and fruit (I used muscat grapes)
Last night, I used 170 grams of flour, water, and sourdough starter, and let it sit for 13 hours. I used all of it, and I used the egg and pea protein to mix it together. It was a bit tiring because the texture of the sourdough is stickier than usual.
After that, I added butter and salt, and a little stevia for sweetness. But, it's not really necessary because I'll be topping it with honey later.
I baked it in a pan over low heat. Then, let both sides cook until fully cooked. Remove and serve on a plate.
I like to use honey and a little fruit for sweetness. It feels like eat pancakes at a restaurant. This makes my breakfast perfect. Healthy and filling, with a sweet, satisfying bite.
See you the next time hive friends!

Hi! Let me introduce myself, its me Wita. I'm usually very interested in new things. Let me be creative with at least these writings. I welcome any suggestions, as long as you mention them politely in the comments section. We can have a free discussion every now and then.
Don't think too much of me as you see in my posts. I'm just sharing what I have, and some of it is actually quite enjoyable to post. It's just that I don't really like posting bad things. I hope we continue to work together to build this Hive community. You can find me on my various social media platforms:
I'm just a woman who wants to write whatever's on my mind. I really enjoy cooking, occasionally traveling, and doing whatever I like. I want to live like a bird flying freely in nature. But I know I'm only human. So, I can only write freely like a bird that can fly with its two wings.
