sourdough discard waffle recipe
- Total Time: 34 minutes
- Yield: 6–8 waffles 1x
- Diet: Vegetarian
Description
This sourdough discard waffle recipe creates delicious waffles with crisp edges, a fluffy interior, and a subtle tangy flavor, enhanced by a vibrant purple ube hue. It’s a versatile family-friendly meal, perfect for breakfast or dinner, utilizing leftover sourdough starter.
Ingredients
- 240 g (1 cup) unfed sourdough discard
- 180 g (1.5 cups) all-purpose flour
- 30 g (2 tablespoons) granulated sugar
- 8 g (2 teaspoons) baking powder
- 3 g (0.5 teaspoon) sea salt
- 120 ml (0.5 cup) whole milk (or almond milk for dairy-free option)
- 2 large eggs
- 60 g (0.25 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly (or melted coconut oil for dairy-free)
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 10 ml (2 teaspoons) ube extract
Instructions
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the unfed sourdough discard, whole milk, large eggs, melted unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and ube extract until uniform and well combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, briefly whisk the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and sea salt.
- Mix Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. A few lumps are perfectly acceptable; do not overmix.
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron to its medium-high setting (typically 3-4), greasing lightly if needed, and ensure it’s fully hot.
- Cook Waffles: Scoop about 0.5 cup (120 ml) of batter onto the hot iron. Cook for 3-5 minutes until deeply golden purple and crisp, with no steam visibly escaping.
- Remove and Serve: Carefully remove the cooked waffle to a wire rack to maintain crispness while finishing the batch.
Notes
For quick assembly, prepare dry ingredients ahead of time and store in an airtight container. The complete waffle batter can be mixed the night before and refrigerated; this allows flavors to meld for an even richer result. To maintain crispness, always place cooked waffles on a wire rack.
