Fluffy Sourdough Pancakes

Cultural Context

Sourdough pancakes are a delightful twist on traditional pancakes, utilizing leftover sourdough starter to create a light and fluffy texture. This method not only reduces waste but also adds a subtle tanginess that enhances the flavor. Popular in American households, these pancakes have gained attention for their unique taste and texture, making them a favorite for brunch gatherings and family breakfasts alike.

4 servings
Servings4
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
0.5 teaspoons baking soda
0.75 teaspoons salt
1 cup sourdough starter
0.25 cup melted butter
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil provides a dairy-free option while margarine is often less expensive.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk is lower in calories, and water can be used to reduce costs.

1

Grab a large bowl and add 1.5 cups (240 grams) of all-purpose flour.

2

Add 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoons of baking soda, and 0.75 teaspoons of salt to the flour and mix with a whisk until combined.

3

Set the dry ingredients aside and grab a medium bowl for the wet ingredients.

4

Pour off any liquid from the sourdough starter and add 1 cup (240 grams) of sourdough starter to the bowl.

5

Add 0.25 cup (56 grams) of melted butter, 1 cup of milk, and 2 large eggs to the sourdough starter and stir until combined.

6

If desired, add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract for extra flavor.

7

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently to combine, leaving the batter lumpy.

8

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter to coat the surface.

9

Using about a third of a cup of batter, pour it onto the skillet for each pancake.

10

Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

11

Repeat with remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed, and keep pancakes warm in an oven set to 175°F if desired.
