Instructions

  1. To make the sponge, stir down the sourdough starter, which can either be room temperature or cold if you keep it in the fridge. Add 1 cup of the unfed starter discard (now is a good time to feed your remaining starter) to a large bowl with the flour, sugar, and buttermilk. It will be quite thick. Cover and let sit overnight at room temperature or up to 24 hours in the fridge.
  2. The next morning, preheat your waffle maker. Add the eggs, melted butter, baking soda, vanilla, and salt to the overnight sponge, stirring until combined.
  3. Pour some of the batter into a waffle press and close the lid. Cook until golden brown and cooked all the way through. Transfer to a wire rack and keep warm in a 225°F oven while you repeat with the remaining batter until ready to serve.
