I love pancakes. I love all kinds of pancakes. I’ve rarely met a pancake that I didn’t like.
The pancake itself fried so you get a little bit of crispy bits around the edge while the middle is light, fluffy, and and FULL of flavor, slathered with butter, covered in REAL maple syrup. It’s a thing of DELICIOUS BEAUTY!!!
But sourdough takes these favorites of mine to another level. Boy oh, boy!!!
Over the years I’ve made and tried TONS of different pancake recipes. I’ve dabbled in sourdough for many years as well… most of that time making it so much more difficult than it really is. I feel like I’m getting the hang of it nowadays I think.
Of all the recipes I have tried though, I do believe this is the BEST one I have made. It’s been tweaked and this is my favorite! MY FAVORITE! That says a lot… and I want to share that recipe with you!
Start a batch tonight for your family tomorrow! Enjoy!
1 cup sourdough starter
1 cup milk kefir, buttermilk, or water (realize you can make your own buttermilk with the amount of milk and add about a tsp of vinegar or lemon juice, allow the milk to sour a little)
1 cup flour
Combine these ingredients and allow to ferment overnight
1/4 cup melted butter (you can use coconut oil as well)
2 eggs beaten slightly
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla
Mix these ingredients into your prepared starter mix and allow to stand for 30 minutes. Then get your hot skillet ready, add the oil or butter to the skillet and fry your pancakes batter as normal.
This is making my mouth water!
By the way, I make double this recipe… we have a lot of big eaters, and if by chance we have a few left over, I put them in a ziplock bag for another meal!
