How I Came to Make Simple Pancakes with Sourdough Recipe
I was visiting my friend the other day and she has a sourdough starter. I absolutely love sourdough bread! But the idea of a starter has always overwhelmed me/been to busy to bother. But my friend told me about a recipe for sourdough pancakes and since I am a huge lover of pancakes, I just had to take some starter and make them.
Hence, I now have a starter and am hooked on pancakes with sourdough! In the upcoming weeks I am going to try other sourdough recipes that I may share on here so stay tuned.
