Description
Delicious pancakes made with sourdough starter, perfect for breakfast or brunch!
Ingredients
Scale
- 2/3 cup sourdough starter (bubbly or hungry, stirred down)
- 2/3 cup milk (or plant-based milk)
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon oil or melted butter
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Butter or oil for skillet or griddle
- Maple syrup for drizzling
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup pecans
- Pinch salt
- 1 firm banana, sliced
- 2–3 tablespoons maple syrup
Instructions
- Whisk wet ingredients together in a medium bowl.
- Mix dry ingredients together in a small bowl. (See notes if fermenting overnight)
- Gradually add flour mixture to wet mixture, whisking until just combined. If the batter feels thick, add a little more milk to thin to the desired consistency. Let sit 15 minutes.
- Heat a dry skillet over medium-low heat until very hot. Add oil or a combo of oil and butter to the skillet and swirl. Ladle in a 1/2 cup batter to make a 6-inch pancake. Flip when golden and small bubbles appear at the surface. Cook until middle puffs in the center, lowering heat if necessary.
- Keep in a warm oven or cover with foil. Repeat with the remaining pancakes.
- Add butter to the same skillet. Add pecans and a pinch of salt. Saute for 3-4 minutes over medium heat until toasted. Move to one side. Add the bananas and sear each side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden.
- Once the bananas are golden, pour the maple syrup over the bananas and pecans, stir, turn the heat off and remove the pan from the burner.
- Serve the pancakes topped with the Maple Glazed Bananas and Pecans.
Notes
- If fermenting overnight, add the baking powder and soda in the morning.
- Adjust milk for desired consistency.
