Sourdough discard Pancakes

This recipe is the first one with gluten that I have posted, I just recently started a sourdough journey and wanted to share an easy way to use leftover discard!

Ingredients:

2 cups of flour

2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder

2 tablespoons of sugar

1 teaspoon of salt

1 cup of discard

1 1/2 cups of milk

2 tablespoons of oil

1 egg

Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt!

In a separate bowl mix the discard, milk, oil, and the egg.

Add your wet ingredients to the dry and mix well.

I use a ladle to make sure I distribute the same amount of batter per pancake.

Cook on medium until you see the bubbles, check to make sure the pancake is golden-brown and then flip!

Cook until the bottom is golden-brown And SERVE 🫶

... Read moreSourdough discard pancakes are the perfect way to utilize your sourdough starter leftovers. They provide a soft, fluffy texture and a delightful flavor, making them an excellent breakfast choice. Not only do these pancakes taste great, but they also contribute to reducing kitchen waste by using up the often-discarded sourdough starter. Many home bakers are discovering creative ways to incorporate sourdough discard into various recipes, including cookies, waffles, and even pizza dough. This reflects a broader trend towards sustainable cooking practices. For these pancakes, you simply combine your sourdough discard with basic pantry ingredients like flour, baking powder, and milk. This method offers a simple and practical approach for both novice home cooks and experienced bakers. Additionally, serving these pancakes with fresh fruit, syrup, or yogurt can enhance their appeal, making for a wholesome and satisfying breakfast. As interest in sourdough and artisan baking continues to grow, recipes like these not only celebrate the process of sourdough fermentation but also inspire more people to enjoy the resulting culinary creations at home.
