Get the Recipe: Sourdough Pancakes
These sourdough pancakes are fluffy and delicious! They have golden buttery edges and a thick fluffy inside. These pancakes have the most tasty unique flavor. This is a great way to use up leftover sourdough discard or sourdough starter!
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 ½ cups milk
- 2 tbsp oil, avocado, vegetable or melted coconut oil
- 1 cup sourdough discard or starter
- 2 cups flour, all purpose or gluten free
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp sugar, or coconut sugar
- pinch sea salt
Instructions
- First, add egg, milk and oil to a mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Then, add in all remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.
- If you have time, allow the batter to sit for 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to develop.
- After 10 minutes, add butter to a skillet over low medium heat. Allow butter to melt.
- Pour ¼ cup of batter into the buttered pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side. Once the pancake has started to bubble, carefully flip.
- Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes on the second side.
- Carefully remove to a plate. Serve!
Notes
- Use dairy free milk if needed.
- I have used this recipe with both sourdough discard and sourdough starter. They both worked well.
- Depending on the state of your sourdough, this recipe may need slightly more or less milk. The thinner the batter, the thinner the pancakes. Thick batter produces thicker pancakes.
- Both gluten free flour and all purpose flour work well.
- Allow the pancake batter to rest for 10 minutes. This allows the batter to slightly thicken.
- Use enough butter to prevent sticking.
- Pancakes are ready to flip when they are bubbling.
- To keep pancakes warm, feel free to turn your oven on warm mode. Then keep pancakes in the oven until ready to serve.
- This recipe makes about ten 3 inch pancakes.
