We love these quick and easy sourdough pancakes using leftover starter. They’re super light and fluffy, freezer-friendly, and can be made vegan too!

Ingredients

  • 4 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups sourdough starter, stirred
  • 1 ½ cups flour (I used whole grain einkorn)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt

Directions

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, melt the butter. Let it cool slightly, and then add the eggs, milk and vanilla. Stir well.

  2. 2

    Add the sourdough starter and stir well.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Let the batter sit for about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, preheat the griddle.

  5. 5

    When the batter is ready, gently stir and use 1/3 cup measuring spoon to ladle pancake batter onto the hot griddle. Let the pancake cook for 2-3 minutes, until the edges are showing signs of being cooked and there are bubble on the top.

  6. 6

    Gently flip the pancake and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve hot with your desired toppings. We like butter and pure maple syrup.
