Sourdough Discard Crepe


  • Author: Lydia Grace
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 crepes 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Crepe Batter:

  • 1 cup (240ml) sourdough discard (unfed is fine!)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) milk (dairy or plant-based will work!)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar (optional for sweet crepes; omit for savory)
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp melted butter or oil (for the batter)

For Cooking:

  • Butter or neutral oil (for greasing the pan)

Sweet Options

  • Fresh fruit: sliced bananas, strawberries, or blueberries
  • A drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or chocolate sauce
  • A dusting of powdered sugar (because life is better with a little extra sweetness)
  • Whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream

Savory Options

  • Ham and gruyere cheese (classic!)
  • Sautéed spinach and mushrooms with a sprinkle of feta
  • Smoked salmon with cream cheese and dill

Instructions

  1. Cooking Your Crepes: Ladle about 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan. QUICKLY swirl the pan around to spread the batter into a thin, even circle. This part takes a little practice, but don’t stress—it’ll still taste amazing! Cook for about 1–2 minutes until the edges start to lift. Flip the crepe gently with a spatula and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stack finished crepes on a plate and cover them with a clean towel to keep them warm.
  2. Heat the Pan: Preheat your non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a small pat of butter or a drizzle of neutral oil, just enough to lightly coat the pan.
