Sourdough waffles deliver gourmet flavor and texture in just 10 minutes. Enjoy a crisp exterior and a soft, airy interior with a delightful tang from the active sourdough starter.
Feed your sourdough starter with 100 grams of flour and 100 grams of water. Let it rest in a warm place for 4-6 hours until bubbly and active.
In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and the active sourdough starter until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease it with melted butter or non-stick spray.
Pour about 1/3 cup of batter onto the waffle iron and cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
Notes
Customize the recipe by using whole wheat or rye flour for a richer flavor. For a dairy-free version, substitute milk and butter with plant-based alternatives.
