I feel like a whole new world has opened up for me. I never thought I would spend the time learning all these new ideas and skills I have always wanted to. Learning how to make a sourdough starter was a game changer for me. And ever since I succeeded, I have been slightly obsessed with all things sourdough. And my first sourdough recipe is ready to share with you! My light anf fluffy sourdough pancakes are so divine, you will be making yourself a sourdough starter asap!

Now, I am no sourdough expert, I am learning as I go. But I tried quite a few different sourdough pancake recipes and none were exactly what I wanted. Some had ingredients I didn’t want to use and were missing some I wanted in it. So, I changed up things, worked on different ratios and cam up with a sourdough pancake recipe that I am so truly in love with!! It is one you really need to try!

There are a few things to make sure you are doing before you make those. Really just one thing. Make sure you have an active and fed sourdough starter. I fed this 24 hours before I made these pancakes. I feed my sourdough starter every 24 hours right now, since it is still on my counter. But if I had it in the fridge, I would have taken it out the day before and fed it. It was ripe and ready to go when I made my pancakes this morning.

Gosh my sourdough starter has gone through some crazy stages, from the beginning, to the middle (where it was so smelly I almost threw it out!), to now…it smells so good and its working like a charm!

There is nothing better than some homemade pancakes. Hot sourdough pancakes with sweet syrup and butter…my gosh.

I know, yes you could easily just pull out that Biquick mix, or Hungry Jack pancake mix and add water. I still use that and its great! But, there are some great health benefits to using a sourdough starter. It is generally easier to digest sourdough than other wheat or flour breads. So, I like to think I am doing my best to feed my family at the same time.

Also, this is a great skill to have, especially if you find yourself under quarantined and realize you are out of pancake mix! If you have flour, eggs and a couple simple baking ingredients, you are good to go!

LETS TALK ABOUT HOW TO MAKE THESE DELICIOUS SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

First, get your sourdough starter and have it ready. Next, take your starter, milk, egg, vanilla, coconut oil(liquid, you may need to melt down yours if it is solid), and honey. Mix them until combined. Add your flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and a dash of cinnamon and mix until it is all combined.

Ladle some batter onto a hot griddle (I like mine about 400 degrees) or cast iron skillet that has been greased. Let the batter cook until you see bubbles form on the pancake. Flip the pancake and let cook for another minute or two.

Serve hot with butter and syrup or like we do, with peanut butter and syrup! Its so good!

These are by far my most favorite pancakes ever!

The combination of the crisp outside and the fluffy inside is amazing…plus it holds together even after it has syrup on it. You know how sometimes the pancake will pull apart? Nope, these are structurally so good!
