Fresh-Milled Sourdough Discard Pancakes
Equipment
- 1 Bowl
- 1 Flour Mill (I use the Nutrimill Harvest)
- 1 whisk
- 1 Spatula
- 1 Griddle (You can cook these on a Blackstone, cast iron skillet, or whatever skillet you have on hand)
Ingredients
- 92 g Hard white wheat berries
- 92 g Soft white wheat berries
- 92 g Spelt wheat berries
- 10 g Baking powder (2 tsp)
- 8 g Baking Soda (1 ¼ tsp)
- 30 g Granulated sugar (2 Tbsp)
- 8 g Salt (1 tsp)
- 250 g Sourdough Discard (1 cup)
- 1 ½ c milk (I use whole milk)
- 1 egg
- 24 g Avocado oil for in batter plus some for oiling skillet (2 Tbsp)
Instructions
- Measure all of your ingredients

- Mill your wheat berries into a fine flour.

- Mix together milk, sourdough discard, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sugar, salt, avocado oil, and egg.
- Add your fresh-milled flour to your other ingredients and mix until completely combined. Be sure to get all of the flour at the bottom of the bowl, but be careful not to overmix.
- Leave the mixture sit until it begins to bubble while you preheat your griddle.
- Oil your skillet with avocado oil or butter and allow it to heat up at medium-low heat.
- Pour/ladle your batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until the batter bubbles on the top of the pancakes before flipping them over. Continue to cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through.

- Serve the pancakes warm with butter and syrup.
