Sourdough Pancakes

During my Artisan Bread programme, I grew sourdough. For those who understands sourdough, you'll know you have to throw and feed to maintain the activities of the sourdough. Many of us who had to throw and feed the sourdoughs, found physically discarding the sourdough a waste. Initially, I really discarded them. Subsequent week, when we had to maintain two types of sourdoughs, I found it very wasteful. So I decided to store them into the fridge. You can visualised the number of containers of sourdough I have in there. With so many tubs of sourdoughs on hand, I had to source for recipes that make use of sourdoughs.

I tried this same recipe twice - vanilla and chocolate. The chocolate batter was really very liquid, it didn't thicken like the vanilla because the quantity of sourdough was more than the flour. I think because of that, the chocolate pancake was softer and nicer. If you are like me, with extra sourdough on hands, try this recipe. You can make first and freeze them. Heat it up before consuming. They are really good (even if on its own though)! I shall try this same recipe for waffles soon!
