Description

Fluffy and flavorful pancakes made with leftover sourdough discard, perfect for a warm family breakfast.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the sourdough discard, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter may be slightly lumpy.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grease lightly if needed.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  7. Repeat until all batter is used. Serve warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg, or use buttermilk for a lighter texture.
