  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 pancakes 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk (or more if needed)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the sourdough discard, egg, sugar, and milk.
  • Add baking powder, salt, and melted butter, stirring until the batter is smooth.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
  • Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges set, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your preferred toppings.

Notes

For a richer flavor, you can replace the milk with buttermilk for extra tanginess. If you prefer a thinner pancake, simply add a bit more milk to adjust the batter consistency. These pancakes also freeze well just store them in an airtight container and reheat for a quick, delicious breakfast during the week
