Notes
Just as a heads up, I used the Dash mini pancake maker for this recipe, and it made 5 pancakes. If you make them in a regular skillet, this recipe only makes about 2 to 3 average-sized pancakes rather than 5 mini ones.
I feed my sourdough starter whole wheat flour to 100% hydration: equal parts water and flour (40 grams of each). I prefer using whole wheat so my pancakes have more fiber. However, this recipe should still work just fine if you use all-purpose.
