Ingredients:

• 4 oz. Baking Chocolate
• 1/2 c. Hot Water
• 1 tsp. Baking Soda
• 1 c. Butter or Coconut Oil
• 2 c. Sugar
• 2 eggs
• 2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
• 1 c. Walnuts or Pecans, chopped
• 1 1/2 c. Flour, sifted
• 1/2 tsp. Salt
• 1 1/2 c. Fresh Sourdough Starter

Note: Depending on the hydration level (consistency) of your sourdough starter, a little more or less flour may be needed to achieve a brownie batter consistency.

Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Mix in the hot water and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir in the baking soda until the mixture is foamy. Set aside and allow to cool until lukewarm (it is important the mixture not be too hot).

Cream together the butter (or coconut oil) and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs and mix well. Add the vanilla, chocolate mixture, and nuts. Gently add the flour and salt. Finally add the sourdough starter. Mix to combine but do not overmix! Pour into a greased 9x13-inch pan. Allow the batter to rise in a warm spot (70-85°F) for approximately a half hour. Bake brownies at 350°F for 35 to 40 minutes.
