Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Cast Iron skillet or nonstick skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 245 grams 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 6 grams 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 6 grams 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 50 grams 4 Tablespoons sugar
  • 6 grams 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 300 grams 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 120 grams 1/2 cup sourdough discard
  • 57 grams 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt together. Set aside.
  • 245g (1 3/4 c) all-purpose flour, 6g (1 1/2 tsp) baking powder, 6g (1 tsp) baking soda, 50g (4 T) sugar, 6g (1 tsp) salt
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sourdough discard and melted butter until smooth.
  • 2 eggs, 300g (1 1/4 c) milk, 120g (1/2 c) sourdough discard, 57g (4 T) unsalted butter, melted
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until the flour is just combined. Be careful not to over mix the batter, it’s okay if it is still lumpy.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet or frying pan to medium-high heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter into the hot pan.
  • I found that I got more of an even brown color without buttering the hot pan before cooking the pancakes. However, you can grease the hot pan with butter before cooking if you prefer a more buttery flavor on your pancakes.
  • Cook on the first side for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges of the pancakes start to turn golden brown and bubbles start appearing on the top of the pancake. Then flip and continue to cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the other side.
  • Remove the pancakes from the skillet and stack on a plate.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve hot and enjoy!
