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.

Ingredients
- 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
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, then whisk in the sourdough starter until smooth.
- 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.
- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it if needed.
- Pour the batter into the waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, the waffles should be golden brown and crisp.
- Add your favorite toppings. I go with powdered sugar when I feel decadent or Greek yogurt and blackberries to feel less guilty.
