Ingredients
  • 1 cup sourdough starter, fed several hours before
  • 1½ cups warm water
  • 2½ cups flour (your choice, I use spelt or hard red wheat)
  • 1 egg
  • ⅔ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons oil (I use coconut or olive)
Preparation Instructions
  1. The night before, combine the starter, water and flour in a bowl and cover with foil. Set it in a warm spot, I stuck mine in the oven (which was not on) just so it wouldn't catch a draft or anything, even though it is spring, it is still winter here.
  2. The next morning, mix the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl and then pour into the starter. Mix thoroughly and let sit for 5 minutes while you heat your griddle. This time allows the baking soda to activate and makes for nice fluffy pancakes.
  3. Once it has sat for 5 minutes and your griddle is toasty, add some butter or coconut oil to the griddle and, using a ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the hot griddle.
  4. Allow to cook until bubbly and the edges are lightly browned and then carefully flip and cook the other side.
  5. Dish up and serve!
