Banana Mulberry Sourdough Pancakes
Banana Mulberry Sourdough Pancakes
Banana Mulberry Sourdough Pancakes are super delicious. Pancakes made with sourdough have a nice tang and the bananas give the pancakes super flavor. If you don’t have or can’t find mulberries, you can substitute blackberries. Serve with maple syrup or make homemade mulberry-ginger syrup. Another option is to serve the pancakes with butter honey. Simple take softened butter and stir in a few tablespoons of honey.


What Are Mulberries?
There are three principle varieties of the mulberry, black, red and white. The black, really purplish-black variety is commonly found in Europe, the red in the eastern and southern United States and the white in Asia. Mulberries look somewhat like blackberries in size and shape. When fully ripe, mulberries are sweet-sour but bland. Unripe berries are very sour and do need the addition of sugar.
Mulberries aren’t commercially grown in the United States but grow wild from Massachusetts to the Gulf states and as far west as Nebraska. They can be eaten raw or used to make jams, jellies, desserts, pancakes, baked goods and wine. If you are lucky enough (like me) that knows someone with Mulberry trees in their yard, get out there and get yourself some. If not, check out Pick Your Own

These pancakes look wonderful, I love banana pancakes! I've never made pancakes using a sourdough starter, I will need to try that sometime (once I successfully master the sourdough starter, so far it hasn't been successful!), that sounds REALLY good!
Hi Maria~ It took me about 3 tries before I got my starter to "co-operate" with me:) It's over a year old now!! Thanks for stopping by and hope you stop back again!
Great looking pancakes!! And thanks for joining us for a whole year!!
Thank You! And Congrats on your New Baby:)
Thanks Cathy!! Next month Quick Breads!! Woohoo~
I've never used mulberries. What a great idea! Congratulations on your year of Sourdough Surprises. I agree, it is fun. Everyone is so creative.
Congratulations on a year with Sourdough Surprises! You're much more consistent with it than I am. 🙂 I enjoy it, too. It is fun, and stretches my abilities in ways that probably wouldn't happen without the challenges.
Thanks~ I agree with you, I have made things this past year with my sourdough starter that I would normally have not made:) See You next time~
These pancakes look GREAT !!
Thank you Winnie and Thanks for stopping by:)
I'm like Jane – I only really know mulberries from the nursery rhyme! They look lovely & your pancakes are so light and fluffy.
Thank Suz~ Thanks for stopping by and if you ever get a chance to try mulberries you will love them:)
Thanks Jane!!
I heard about mulberries as a child through the nursery rhyme 'Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush' but never actually knew what they looked like until now! Your pancakes look delicious!
I think I could handle one, two, or three of those please; maybe four?
Hi Cindy! How about five:) lol
I am making pancakes for breakfast this morning 🙂 This looks great, I love the taste of sourdough!
Hi Ann! I do too:) Thanks for stopping! I'm always glad to see you:)
Just mouthwatering….looks easy and delicious!
Thank you! They turned out delicious!
Beautiful, fluffy pancakes! I've never had a mulberry, wish I knew what they taste like!
Hi Rebecca~ To me they taste like a blackberry, blueberry and acai berry all rolled into one:) Thanks for stopping by~
Great fluffy pancakes! Those mulberries look to good to be true, I'm going to keep an eye out for them.
Hi Robyn~ Thanks for stopping:) Hope you have a great weekend~
I love banana pancakes! My son made them for me the first time. Yum! And adding berries is another plus! Do you grow your own mulberries?
Hi Joan~ Thanks for stopping by:) My son and his wife moved into a home that has been in my daughter-in-laws family for over 60 years. On the property there are 4 humongous Mulberry Trees. They weren't even sure what they were, so when we found out they were Mulberries and delicious, we harvested the berries and froze them….I made jelly also:)
I was wondering last night how many challenges I had participated in. I need to look that up. Never tried mulberries. I'm curious.
Hi~ To me Mulberries taste like a combination of blackberries, blueberries and acai berries. They have a dark blue/black color also.
Those are some fluffy pancakes! Love the added banana – yum!
Thanks Korena! I always have a frozen banana or 2 hiding in the back of my freezer:) Lynn
