Description

Transform your sourdough discard into rich, chewy brownies that boast a unique flavor profile.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough starter (discard)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch brownie pan.
  2. Mix the melted butter and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the sourdough starter, eggs, and vanilla extract, stirring gently.
  4. Whisk together the cocoa powder, flour, and salt in another bowl.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth it out.
