Ingredients

2 cups Fed Sourdough Starter*
4 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted plus more for cooking pancakes
2 tbsp Honey
1 Egg
1 tsp Vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
½ tsp Salt
½ tsp Baking Soda
1 cup Rolled Oats soaked overnight** optional

Instructions

In a large measuring cup or bowl, mix together the fed sourdough starter, melted butter, honey, egg, vanilla bean paste, and salt.
2 cups Fed Sourdough Starter*, 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter, melted, 2 tbsp Honey, 1 Egg, 1 tsp Vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract, ½ tsp Salt
Once everything is blended well, stir in the baking soda until it's incorporated throughout. Finally, add the soaked oats (if using).
½ tsp Baking Soda, 1 cup Rolled Oats soaked overnight**
Heat a cast iron skillet or heavy bottom pan over medium heat. Melt enough butter to coat the bottom of the pan for cooking the pancakes (roughly 2 tablespoons). Pour batter in the pan, forming roughly 4 inch rounds.
Cook until bubbling and then flip. (If using cast iron, you may need to adjust the heat lower as the pan warms throughout cooking.)
Once pancakes are golden brown on both sides, remove them from the pan and serve warm. We love them topped with grass fed butter and a fried egg. They pair great with maple or date syrup, honey, jam, fresh whipped cream, or goat cheese.

Notes

*The sourdough starter should be fed the night before so that it's at its peak when you're ready to make pancakes. For best results, use a fresh milled whole grain flour (see blog post).

**The rolled oats should be soaked overnight in warm water and an acid. For this recipe, use 1 c oats, 1 c warm water, 1 Tbsp acid (whey, yogurt, buttermilk, lemon juice, or vinegar). Mix together, cover, let it sit out on a counter ready to cook the next morning. Use the oats along with the liquid they soaked in for the pancakes.
