Description

Utilize your leftover sourdough starters or read the links to learn how to make your own starter. Adapted from Completely Delicious.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup sourdough starter
  • 1¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup yogurt or crème fraîche
  • ¾ cup water
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ tablespoon orange zest
  • Butter or cooking oil

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the starter, flour, yogurt, and water. Let batter rest for 30 minutes
  2. then stir in the oil, egg, salt, sugar, baking soda, and orange zest. Stir until just combined; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
  3. Heat a sauté pan or griddle over medium heat. Add butter or oil to the pan, then add batter in ¼ cup spoonfuls.
  4. Cook pancakes until bubbles start to appear on the surface and the edges appear dry, about 5 minutes.
  5. Flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter, holding cooked pancakes in a warm oven.
  7. Serve pancakes with butter, maple syrup, jam, or fresh fruit. Store leftover pancakes in a sealed container for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 4 weeks.
