Delicious and easy waffles made with sourdough discard, perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour provides structure
- 1 tbsp Sugar enhances flavor
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder aiding in leavening
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda contributes to rising
- 1/4 tsp Salt balances flavor
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Sourdough Discard adds flavor and moisture
- 1 cup Milk creates a light texture
- 1 large Egg binds the batter
- 2 tbsp Melted Butter adds richness
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract for flavor depth
Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl: all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Whisk together well.
- In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: sourdough discard, milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Don’t overmix; a few lumps are acceptable.
Cooking
- Preheat your waffle maker or griddle according to the manufacturer’s instructions and grease lightly to prevent sticking.
- Pour about one cup of batter onto the preheated waffle maker and cook until it releases easily, generally indicated by steam release.
- Remove the cooked waffle with a fork and place it on a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Notes
Make sure your sourdough discard is bubbly and active for optimal flavor. Adjust the sweetness by modifying the sugar amount.
