Ingredients
 
 

The evening before

  • 375 g milk
  • 225 g all-purpose flour
  • 200 g discard sourdough starter
  • 25 g granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 45 g butter melted, plus more for frying
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

In the morning

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, mix together the flour, milk, sugar, sourdough starter, eggs, butter and salt. Cover the bowl with a plate or a lid and pop it into the refrigerator overnight (or up to 24 hours.)
  • In the morning, whisk in the baking powder and baking soda.
  • Preheat a cast-iron or non-stick pan over medium-high heat, then grease the pan with butter.
  • Ensure the pan is hot, and the butter is sizzling, then pour in around ⅓ cup of batter for each pancake. If the pan gets too hot, turn down the heat a little once you've poured in the batter. 
  • The batter will spread out in the pan, and won’t rise just yet. Bubbles will start appearing on the surface of the pancake. Once bubbles cover the whole area (about 2-3 minutes), flip the pancake over and finish cooking the other side for another minute or 2. 
  • Transfer the pancake to a plate and continue with the rest of the batter until it is all used up, stacking the pancakes in a pile as you go. 
  • Serve with butter and maple syrup or berries and cream
