GUT HEALTHY BENEFITS OF SOURDOUGH DISCARD FUNFETTI PANCAKES<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Who says funfetti pancakes can\u2019t be both fun and gut friendly? By adding sourdough discard into this pancake recipe, you\u2019re not only reducing food waste but also boosting the gut health benefits of your breakfast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s why these pancakes are a win for your digestive system:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Prebiotic Power<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Sourdough discard contains prebiotics (fibers that feed the good bacteria in your gut). These beneficial microbes thrive on the fermented compounds found in sourdough, promoting better digestion and gut balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Easier to Digest<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Thanks to the natural fermentation process, sourdough discard helps break down gluten and phytic acid, making sourdough pancakes gentler on digestion. This is especially great for those who struggle with bloating or mild gluten sensitivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Blood Sugar Friendly<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Unlike traditional pancakes made with refined flour, sourdough discard pancakes help slow down carb digestion. This means fewer blood sugar spikes and longer lasting energy\u2014keeping you fueled without the dreaded sugar crash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Nutrient Boost<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Fermented grains in sourdough discard make minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron more bioavailable, meaning your body can absorb these nutrients more efficiently. This can support overall health, from metabolism to immune function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. A Happy Gut = A Happy Mood<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Your gut and brain are connected, and a balanced gut microbiome can help improve mood and reduce inflammation. Starting your day with a gut friendly breakfast sets the tone for better digestion, energy, and overall well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So go ahead\u2014enjoy these colorful, fluffy sourdough pancakes guilt-free, knowing they\u2019re doing good for your gut while satisfying your sweet tooth!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HOW TO MAKE HEALTHY FUNFETTI PANCAKES WITH SOURDOUGH DISCARD<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
First, sift together your dry ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- 1 \u00bd cups all purpose or white wheat flour<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 4 teaspoons aluminum free baking powder<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 teaspoon sea salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Set dry ingredients aside while you whisk together the wet ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- \u00bd cup sourdough discard<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 egg<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 cup milk of choice (I used unsweetened organic soy milk)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- 3 tablespoons melted butter, melted coconut oil, or avocado oil<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Whisk your wet sourdough pancake ingredients well until completely combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next, fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Don't over mix the matter or you can end up with tough sourdough pancakes. And we want sourdough pancakes to be light and fluffy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, stir your rainbow sprinkles into your sourdough funfetti pancake batter! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scoop the batter by either \u2153 or \u00bd cup scoops onto an oiled griddle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cook them until bubbles form on top. Flip them and cook the other side until it is just golden brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
