Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter discard with the flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix until well combined.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, and melted butter until smooth.

  3. Slowly incorporate the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. If desired, fold in your favorite mix-ins such as chocolate chips, nuts, berries, or spices for an extra burst of flavor.

  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.

  6. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface.

  7. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

  8. Repeat until all the batter is used, keeping the cooked pancakes warm in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest.

  9. Serve the sourdough discard pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.

  10. Enjoy the fluffy texture and unique tanginess of these sourdough discard pancakes as a delightful twist on a classic breakfast staple!
