Equipment

  • 1 Large Bowl
  • 1 Spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups sourdough discard
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp honey or sugar
  • butter for the pan

Instructions
 

  • Warm up a cast iron pan (or regular pan) over medium low heat for ten minutes. You want the pan to be nice and hot before cooking!
  • Mix the sourdough discard, baking soda, salt and honey in a large bowl until it becomes light and fluffy. I use a spatula and mix the battter 30-40 times.
  • If using crumpet rings to shape the dough: grease them well with butter to prevent batter from sticking. (I use the rings to mason jars, lip side up).
  • Add butter to the pan to prevent batter from sticking.
  • Scoop slightly less than 1/4 cup of batter onto the pan. Cook for 4 minutes on the first side. Flip and cook another 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and done in the center.
  • Top with maple syrup and enjoy!

Notes

  • If using crumpet rings, butter them well.  I use a paper towel to smear butter into the rings.
  • Heat the pan very well before your begin cooking.
  • Remove clumps from baking soda for a smooth batter.
