Ingredients

• 1 cup Sourdough starter (active)
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Cooking oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the active sourdough starter, all-purpose flour, and milk. Mix well until smooth. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature overnight, preferably 8 to 12 hours.

Step 2

The next morning, whisk the eggs in a small bowl and add them to the sourdough mixture. Stir in the melted butter, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the batter is combined and slightly bubbly.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with a small amount of cooking oil or butter.

Step 4

Once the skillet is hot, pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the surface for each pancake, spacing them apart to allow for spreading.

Step 5

Cook the pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.

Step 6

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep them warm while cooking the remaining pancakes.

Step 7

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
