Delicious Sourdough Kamut pancakes made from home-milled kamut flour top the list of my favorite ancient grain breakfast foods!
Servings: 8 pancakes
Calories: 163kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup sourdough starter active or discard is ok (240 grams)
- ¼ cup sugar 50 grams
- 1 cup milk 240 grams
- 2 eggs 100 grams
- 1 ¼ cup Kamut flour 150 grams
- 1 teaspoon baking powder 4.8 grams
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt 1.25 grams
- 1 teaspoon baking soda 4.8 grams
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 4.2 grams
Instructions
- Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle on medium heat while you mix the batter.
- Combine the sugar, milk, eggs, starter, and vanilla in a large bowl and whisk until smooth.
- Add the dry ingredients: kamut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the wet ingredients and whisk until the batter is smooth.
- Turn down the heat to medium-low heat, spread some coconut oil, olive oil, or melted butter to coat the surface of the skillet or griddle, and then ladle a half cup of batter onto the hot griddle.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side. Look for bubbles around the edges of each pancake to know when it’s ready to flip. When you see bubbles and the edges begin to look dry, use a spatula to slightly lift the edge and check the first side.
- Once the first side is golden brown, flip, then wait until the second side is golden brown as well, then transfer to a dish with a lid to keep the pancakes warm while you finish the batch.
- Serve kamut pancakes warm with fresh butter, maple syrup, and whatever toppings you like. My favorite way to enjoy these pancakes is with whipped cream and fresh berries on top!

Notes
Tips for the Best Pancakes
- The batter shouldn’t be runny, but it shouldn’t be too thick to pour. If the batter is too thin, add a tablespoon of flour at a time to thicken it up. If the batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time to thin it down.
- Add a teaspoon of cinnamon or your favorite toppings like chocolate chips, fresh berries, or bananas to the batter for a delicious breakfast treat.
- Don’t want to mess with making several rounds of pancakes in a skillet or on a griddle. Pour all of the batter into a greased baking sheet and bake at 400°F for 15-17 minutes or until golden brown. Cut into squares and serve; this is the easiest way to make pancakes on the go!
