  • Cover and let rest at cool room temperature (about 65°F to 70°F) for about 12 hours, or overnight.

TO MAKE PANCAKE OR WAFFLE BATTER:

  • In a small bowl or mixing cup, beat together the eggs, and oil or butter.
  • Add to the overnight sponge.
  • Add the salt and baking soda, stirring to combine.
