Pancake Batter

Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, milk, egg, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.

  2. 2

    Add Melted Butter

    Gently fold in the melted butter into the batter until the butter is evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Heat the Griddle

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with oil or butter if desired.

  4. 4

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter. Serve with your favorite toppings such as syrup, berries, or whipped cream.
