sourdough pancakes

Fermented batter cakes

Sourdough pancakes are pancakes made with sourdough starter—the fermented flour-and-water mixture used in sourdough bread.

The starter adds tang and helps the batter rise, producing a slightly chewy texture distinct from conventional pancakes.

A practical way for bakers to use excess starter: I made sourdough pancakes with my discard this morning.
