sourdough waffles
Woke up feeling ambitious and decided to make sourdough waffles my entire personality today. 🧇 Between bagging cookies and feeding the starter, I think I’ve officially mastered the art of the 'Kitchen Shuffle.' 💃
Recipe is in the link! How do we feel about the waffle tower? Too much? Or just enough? 👇
🧇 The "Instant" Sourdough Power Waffles
(Doubled Batch: Makes ~16-20 large waffles | No Overnight Prep Required)
The Ingredients
Sourdough Starter: 2 cups (450g) — Straight from the fridge is fine!
Eggs: 4 large
Buttermilk: 1 cup — (If you like them thinner/crispier, go up to 1 ½ cups)
Melted Butter: ½ cup (1 stick)
All-Purpose Flour: 2 cups — (You can sub 1 cup for Whole Wheat for that "nutty" flavor)
Sugar: 4 tablespoons — (Extra sugar helps with browning since there's no long ferment)
Baking Powder: 2 teaspoons — (Essential for the "instant" rise)
Baking Soda: 1 teaspoon
Salt: 1 teaspoon
🚀 The "Power" Boosts
Protein: 2-3 scoops of Vanilla or Unflavored Protein Powder.
Flavor: 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract.
🥣 The 15-Minute Method
Whisk the Wet: In a giant bowl, combine your starter, eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
Add the Dry: Dump the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and protein powder right on top.
The Fold: Mix until just combined. Don't overwork it! If there are a few lumps, leave them—they make the waffles tender.
The Rest (The "Coffee Break"): Let the batter sit for 10-15 minutes. This is the secret for non-overnight waffles. It lets the leavening activate and the flour hydrate.
The Bake: Pour into your hot 80s GE iron. Wait for the "poof" and the steam to stop!
❄️ The "Everything Chef" Storage
Freeze: Let them cool completely on a rack, then bag them up.
The Airfyer Trick: Reheat from frozen at 350°F for 4 minutes in your French door air fryer for that "fresh-baked" crunch.
