NWSD Sourdough Flapjacks

Quick Method
Bowl 1 :
Mix together:

  • 2.5 Cups Sourdough Starter
  • 1.5 Cups water
  • 3.5 cups all purpose flour

    Bowl 2 :
    Beat 4 eggs with whip and add:(or see Extra Fluffy method below)

  • 1/2 cup oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup powdered milk
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons salt
  • 1 Tablespoon soy flour (optional)

Using a whip, stir all of bowl two ingredients together
Then pour the first bowl of ingredients into the second
bowl. Gently stir together.(Add more water if too thick)
Heat griddle until hot 350- 400 and cook.
Serve with butter and syrup.

(For some added whole wheat- take out 1/2 cup of the flour and substitute 1/2 cup whole wheat flour freshly ground)

Extra Fluffy method:
Instead of adding the eggs to bowl 2 use another bowl:

Bowl 3 : Separate the egg yolks from the whites.Beat the 4 eggs whites until soft peaks form. Then one by one, beat in the egg yolks. Add this fluffy mixture to the final batter after bowl 1 & 2 have been mixed together and a batter has been formed. Make sure to fold egg mixture in gently.

I make this batter early in the morning and let sit for about an hour before making pancakes. I have also made the Fluffy Method Flapjack batter the night before and let it sit overnight on the counter, covered. Except keep out 1 cup of the flour and don't add the beaten eggs until the morning, adding the flour first and then the eggs(gently) into the batter before cooking.
