Sourdough Waffles Recipe

This recipe makes sourdough waffles using a batter that combines flour, sugar, baking powder, eggs, milk, sourdough starter, and melted butter. The waffles come out golden brown and crisp, with a texture similar to traditional waffles but featuring the subtle tang from the sourdough starter. The batter consistency is like pancake batter, which helps create a tender yet crisp waffle. These waffles can be topped with powdered sugar, or for a lighter option, Greek yogurt and fresh blackberries.

Description

Sourdough Waffles Recipe uses common waffle ingredients blended with a sourdough starter, which adds a mild tang and complexity to the flavor. The dry ingredients include all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Wet ingredients combine beaten eggs, milk, and the starter, which when mixed with the dry ingredients and melted butter produce a batter that resembles pancake batter. Cooking in a preheated waffle iron yields waffles with a crisp exterior and tender inside. The sourdough starter not only flavors the waffles but also contributes to their structure and texture.

The waffles can be served as a breakfast or brunch item topped in various ways based on preference, such as simple powdered sugar or a more filling combination like Greek yogurt and berries. Adjusting the batter with extra flour or milk can help achieve the proper consistency before cooking. This recipe provides a different take on waffles by integrating sourdough starter to subtly deepen the flavor profile without requiring extended fermentation times.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour plus more as needed
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 egg large
  • 1/2 cup milk plus more as needed
  • 6 to 8 ounces sourdough starter
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted and cooled, unsalted

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, then whisk in the sourdough starter until smooth.
  3. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients and melted butter, stirring until you achieve a batter with the consistency of pancake batter. You can adjust with additional flour or milk if necessary.
  4. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it if needed.
  5. Pour the batter into the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, the waffles should be golden brown and crisp.
  6. Add your favorite toppings. I go with powdered sugar when I feel decadent or Greek yogurt and blackberries to feel less guilty.
