Ingredients  

  • 2 cups active sourdough starter
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup of butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • neutral tasting oil for frying you could also use butter

Instructions 

Prepare the Batter:

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, and honey until well combined.
  • Add the active sourdough starter to the mixture and stir until smooth.
  • Sprinkle the salt and baking soda over the batter.
  • Gently fold until just combined. The batter will become bubbly and airy as the baking soda reacts with the acidity of the sourdough.

Heat the Skillet:

  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
  • Add a small amount of oil (or butter) to the skillet, ensuring it coats the surface evenly.

Cook the Pancakes:

  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

Serve:

  • Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, sliced bananas, or a dollop of yogurt.

Notes

Tips for Perfect Sourdough Pancakes:

  • Active Starter: Make sure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly before using it in this recipe. This will ensure the best texture and flavor for your pancakes.
  • Gentle Mixing: Be careful not to over-mix the batter once the baking soda is added. This helps maintain the light and fluffy texture of the pancakes.
  • Even Cooking: Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning the pancakes before they are cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary based on your stove and skillet.
