Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup sourdough discard
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- 2 tbsp chopped chives (optional)
- Oil for frying (if pan-frying)
Instructions
- Combine the sourdough discard, flour, salt, and baking powder in a mixing bowl. Mix until well combined.
- Add the milk and egg to the mixture and stir until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough into 4-6 equal portions and roll each portion into a circle on a floured surface.
- Mix together the cheese, bacon, and chives in a separate bowl. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each dough circle.
