Ingredients

• 2 c sourdough starter, room temperature
• 2 T granulated sugar
• 1 egg
• 4 T melted butter
• 1/2 t salt
• 1 t baking soda
• 1 T warm water

Method

The night before using your sourdough starter, remove from refrigerator and let come to room temperature.

In a large bowl, add sourdough starter, sugar, egg, butter, and salt; mix well; set aside.

In a small bowl, dilute 1 teaspoon baking soda in 1 tablespoon of warm water. Important: Only add baking soda/water mixture to the pancake batter just before you are ready to cook the pancakes.

When ready to cook your sourdough pancakes, fold the baking soda/water mixture gently into the prepared pancake batter (do not beat). This will cause a gentle foaming and rising action in the batter. Let the mixture bubble and foam a minute or two.
