How to make healthy sourdough pancakes

 I used to watch my mama making all sorts of sourdough recipes and, admittedly, not paying full attention, I thought it was all a hard and complicated process that would take me ages to master, however, this was not the case and as soon as I moved into my first home (house tour to come!) I decided to start my sourdough journey and I haven't been able to stop making sourdough recipes since!

One of my all-time favourite recipes that I make every other day, sometimes daily, for breakfast is sourdough pancakes.  Mainly because they are SO quick and easy, but healthy too.  The fermented grains give a unique, slightly tangy flavour and I love it.  I could simply never go back to regular pancakes.

You can add different ingredients to make these pancakes more to your liking or just change things up, such as chocolate chips, blueberries or anything similar, however, I have yet to feel the need to venture out and try these other variations yet because they are so yummy just the way they are.

EQUIPEMENT YOU WILL NEED

• A ladle
• A large mixing bowl
• A spatula
• Scales
• A cast iron skillet (or other frying pan)
• A spoon to mix

INGREDIENTS YOU WILL NEED

• 2 cups (250g) of fed sourdough starter
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 (35g) of melted butter or coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons of honey
• You may also need one teaspoon of baking powder, but my sourdough starter is made with wholemeal spelt flour so doesn't require this

Once you have all of your ingredients ready, place them in a large mixing bowl and stir together thoroughly until all ingredients are properly combined.  Make sure your skillet is HOT and has been oiled so it is ready to go without any sticking ready to occur.

Fill your ladle and pour mixture into the skillet.

These sourdough pancakes cook QUICKLY so you only need to have them on one side for a couple of minutes before flipping over and cooking for another couple of minutes on that side before they are done.

And...ta da!  That is it.  It really is that quick and simple.  This recipe serves 2-4 people depending on how hungry you're feeling. If I'm making this recipe for myself only then I will simply half the recipe.
