Description

Delicious chocolate chip cookies made using sourdough discard, creating a unique flavor and minimizing waste.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup sourdough discard
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the sourdough discard, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until cohesive.
  4. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
