Notes
I used my sourdough discard sandwich bread for this recipe, but you can use any thick-sliced bread.
Store in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-5 days. Any unused batter can be stored in the fridge for up to three days to be used later.
Weigh your ingredients! I can't recommend this enough. Kitchen scales are easy to find, affordable, and beneficial to your baking journey. It is the best way to make sure your recipes turn out as accurate as possible. See my "equipment" section above for links to scales I recommend.
