Sourdough Pancakes
Sourdough Pancakes

My favorite breakfast as a kid was when Mom made these. They are thin, light, have kind of funky sourdough taste and soak up butter like a sponge.  Because sourdough pancakes are thin they all apart if you make them bigger than about 4” or 5" in diameter.  Be sure to use the ¼ measuring cup.

1
Sourdough Sponge
1
egg

1 tsp

baking soda

1 tsp

salt

1 tbl
sugar

Make a sourdough sponge the night before. In the morning set 1 cup aside for the crock then add the egg, baking soda, salt, and sugar and blend well. Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to pour the batter on a 250° to 275° griddle.  Be ready to flip the pancakes quickly as they are thin and cook much faster than regular pancakes.
