After I watched this video, I went to my freezer and pulled out a jar of sourdough starter and let it thaw. I always freeze the excess starter, and now I am so glad I did. I have never made a fluffier, better tasting pancake in my life! They....are....fabulous. Thanks for this recipe!

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Wonderful! I'm so glad you liked them :)

[@agh8835]

How long after freezing does it take it to thaw and use

[@christaannegallant]

Can you freeze discard as well??

[@emmyrez5594]

Love seeing a real recipe. Nothing too fancy, but they sound really good. Trying my hand at sourdough again, 1st time I didn't stay with it, but my father did. And kept my starter alive from April 2020

[@jakemitchell1671]

Same here. My first try at sourdough/starter was not encouraging. I had two mason jars going, but my bread kept turning out bad - dense and odd tasting. I put the two jars in the fridge about a year ago and said "maybe someday." Recently my daughter expressed interest in sourdough, so I pulled out those two jars. The starter was solid, crusty, and brown. I thought "what the heck?" I added water and waited a couple days. It softened and started growing. I discarded some, added flour and water, and within a couple days it was smelling and looking fantastic. That was two weeks ago, and since that time I've made 4-5 loaves of the best sourdough bread I've ever tasted. Trying pancakes next.

Hi Constance, Rochelle from Central Texas Homestead. We found your channel from Rachel at That 1870's Homestead. Looking forward to watching and learning. Mike and I have been gardening here in Texas for over 30 years. We lived on a large homestead however we moved to a small place as we got older and so we could travel more. Mike is a retired chef and we love doing lot's of cooking videos. Many blessings, Rochelle

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Welcome Rochelle! I lived in Texas three different times in my life, and will be headed there next week for a conference :)

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Thank you! I'm so glad you like them :D

Made this recipe with my 'discards' today. Did half a batch, made 7 nice sized pancakes that rose nicely. Added my frozen blueberries to the last 3. They turned out great! Thanks for the recipe!

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Glad you enjoyed them!

[@stephaniemckee-akafarmgirl]

My favorite topping on sourdough pancakes is butterscotch syrup! It’s so delicious!

[@bevballard7516]

Butterscotch syrup sounds like heaven

[@tinadelarosa8922]

Constance, I made these this morning and they were wonderful. The only difference is I used fresh milled flour and added a little vanilla. And, they turned out beautifully. This recipe is my favorite discard pancake recipe yet. I will continue making them. Thank you for sharing this. Thank you for everything you share with us. God Bless you.

[@maryannedeering1663]

Just cooked up my second batch from my discard this morning. They are super delicious! My hubby and grandkids LOVED them so much! light and fluffy and just the right ingredients! This second one I’m freezing again to prepare for whenever we need them for breakfast. This is a great way to use my discard any day I want to whip up something quick!

Greetings from London uk 🇬🇧 just making these now! Thanks for the recipe ❤

[@bwebgirl]

I am a new subscriber and I wanted to Thank You so much for sharing this easy recipe. I was so nervous about trying my first recipe and I chose yours to start my journey. My mom had a sour dough starter that she used to bake from, and I was always afraid of having one. Although I seem to have a knack as a fur-mamma/nana, my house is where plants come to die. If the critter can't tell me he/she is hungry or thirsty...yeah...it's a gonner lol My daughter-in-law got my sourdough starter going for me and got her (Bertha) through her baby stages before entrusting me with her. Now she's easy-peasy and I was ready to try out my first recipe. I combed through multiple recipes and channels on KZbin, and your tutorial won me over! At any rate - I'm actually falling in love with cooking again. It has only taken me 13 years. Cooking/baking, etc was always something my late husband and I did together. When he passed, the joy was taken completely out of it. I cooked to feed my family, but was just going through the motions. But now, I'm excited about cooking from scratch, baking from scratch and canning and preserving for my family. I made sourdough pancakes for my granddaughter who is spending the night here for dinner tonight, and I got her seal of approval!!! She wants one for breakfast in the morning. They're so fluffy!! I take lousy pictures, so sorry I'm not sharing a picture of the actual pancakes, but they are "finicky kid" tested and Nana approved! Thanks again for teaching me how to make them!!!

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

I absolutely love that, that you are finding joy in cooking again. There's nothing like a grandchild to give you that spark :) And welcome!

[@tennesseegrands6620]

Those pancakes look so mouth waterin'! I could eat a dozen! LOL!

[@Boguj297]

Good evening 🌷🌷 I’m new to your channel and love it, Thank You for sharing your life, love all your videos, I’m catching up w all of them, I would love to order 2 mugs, the one with the burgundy bottom was beautiful, I went to the Etsy Site but it’s telling me that Your catching up w other orders, so there were none available, when do you think they’ll be available Mugs are beautiful, and so are you! Stay safe, I pray your daughter continues to heal🌷

[@sharorganic5841]

Does anyone know where you can buy a 1 cup measuring spoon like the 1/2 cup one this gal is using? (Stainless Steel)

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

This is the measuring scoop set that I have - amzn.to/3GXSznW :)

[@mandyliddi5942]

Nice . Any chance you can do a smaller batch recipe for people that only have one?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

It's hard to divide an egg in half unless you use cartoned eggs. I would recommend making a batch, and just freezing the extra. They freeze well and to reheat, I just pop them in a toaster. :)

[@user-vb9ve4ti4c]

Nice recipe Tx ❤

[@carolharbin8093]

😋yummy!

[@choirmom78]

yum!

[@barruzza]

Quick question. Can I use my starter right out of the fridge or do I need to let it sit out for a few hours before using?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Discard can be used right out of the fridge for most recipes, unless it says otherwise :)

[@shalama101]

Now that’s pancake! Do you have a sourdough recipe?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Not online anywhere. I'll share more sourdough in the future :)

[@MNTNSTARZ80.]

I never toss what people call sourdough discards, instead I make bread, cake, muffins, rolls etc. Save them to take to senior citizens, people in need etc. Sometimes I take them to senior center so members can take a treat home

[@fourdayhomestead2839]

Delishious

[@jakemitchell1671]

Do the measurements change if I use active/fed sourdough? Every video specifies discard. What if I want to use my active sourdough that might be left over after making a loaf of bread?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

I've honestly never tried it with anything other than discard. I would *guess* that you could use the same measurement. It's worth a shot :)

[@trobac35]

I ran out of APF. Is it OK to use cake flour? I only have bread and cake flour on hand

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

It *should* work, though I have never tried that. You may need to adjust the quantity. Add a little less than what it calls for at first, and then if it looks like it needs a little more, add the rest. You just want to make sure you have a good batter consistency :)

[@trobac35]

@CosmopolitanCornbread it was soo good. Thank for being generous to share your recipe .

[@swaters3462]

New subbie tonight. Did you leave your discard out overnight, or did you take it straight out of your discard jar just before you made the recipe? Also, how do you reheat your pancakes after they have been frozen?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

I have used it straight out of the fridge, and as fresh discard from the counter. My favorite way to reheat them is in a toaster oven.

[@swaters3462]

Thank. Making these in the morning, with blueberries!

[@jackienoel2864]

So pretty, what if we don’t have the sour dough starter?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Sourdough starter is a must for this particular recipe. I do have other great non-sourdough recipes on my website though - cosmopolitancornbread.com/category/pancakes-and-waffles/ 😉

[@o0oMysticdragono0o]

You said you freeze them so you can have breakfast when you want...how do you go about freezing them...Thank you for sharing

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

I place them in a freezer container with pieces of parchment paper in between. Then just stick them in the freezer. I find they reheat best in a toaster oven.

[@andip4585]

Do you think it would be fine to mix the dry ingredients the night before?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Potentially, however baking soda doesn’t stay active very long once it is wet.

[@paulamader5655]

Do you take our discard out the night before, or use it straight from the fridge? Thank you 💕

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

For the pancakes, I just take it straight from the fridge

[@andrew4031]

Have you tried to let your starter sit for a week in room temperature?

[@bellabella62]

Did you say they can be frozen, if so, when, after they are cooked or freeze the batter?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Freeze the pancakes :)

[@judithmoore6564]

I have been saving off my discard for the last 3 weeks. I have about a cup worth. Is it okay as is to use in this recipe? Thank you in advance. The comments all sound wonderful!

[@zinnia3684]

Yes. You go girl.

[@Alisapao]

Can you use buttermilk?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Yes, you can use buttermilk as well :)

[@Umadbro681]

Do I have to use more flour or can I get away with just discard and the other ingredients?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

This particular recipe does require the additional flour

[@lesliesigler5941]

How do you reheat from frozen?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

I like them best toasted in a toaster oven.

[@lilyS22]

I fed my starter 6 days ago. Is that ok to use the discard?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

If you kept the discard in the fridge, it should be perfect to use

[@lucasmullen3237]

does the sourdough need to be fermented or now

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

This is just using discard. You can mix it up and cook the pancakes immediately.

[@rosebud71wilcox61]

Do you have a written recipe?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

Yes, the link is in the video description

[@phildavis3917]

Why is the baking powder/soda necessary, isn’t that what the sourdough starter is for.

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

This is a discard recipe, so the sourdough isn't being given time to rise.

[@clairefarnell9489]

Just making these now. Thanks for not starting the video by saying..." put one cup of starter,with 3 cups flour,2 cups water overnight" drives me crazy....when i want pancakes,i want pancakes... Do you have a same day sourdough waffle recipe?

[@CosmopolitanCornbread]

This pancake batter can also be used for waffles :)

[@agh8835]

Don’t over beat the egg. Don’t over stir the batter!!

[@bronwenhintz7787]

No matter what it do. I simply can’t make sour dough starter.

[@TwoEnglishAcres]

Try using a good quality rye flour

[@susanaemmert5286]

When you done making it takes a couple weeks when the starter starting to work, be patient …
