I have been on the hunt for recipes that use sourdough discard.  This stuff is so good!  I refuse to “discard” it.  It should be called “leftover sourdough starter that you can make delicious food with”…okay, I guess that name would be too long ;).

I’ve made pancakes and delicious crispy crackers to use some discard, but I think these are by far my favorite…YUM!!!   My grandsons Seth and Kory love waffles.  They would rather have waffles than pancakes any day.  I can’t wait to make these delectable gems for them:)!

These waffles are so light and crispy.  They are so easy to make too!!

Ingredients:

1 cup flour (120 grams)
1/3 cup rolled oats (27 grams)
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 Tbsp. coconut sugar (or granulated sugar)
1/2 tsp. salt
3 large eggs, beaten
1 cup sourdough starter discard (240 grams)
8 Tbsp. melted butter
1/2 cup whole milk (120 grams)

Instructions:

Preheat waffle iron.

Whisk the flour, rolled oats, baking powder, sugar and salt together in a large bowl.

Mix the eggs, sourdough starter, melted butter and milk together in a measuring cup (or bowl).

Add milk mixture to the flour mixture and whisk together until just combined.  Batter will be thick.

Scoop the batter into the heated waffle iron.

Cook for 4-5 minutes or until your beeper or light goes off.

Repeat until the batter is all used up.  This recipe made 4 large waffles with my waffle iron.

Serve waffle with whatever toppings you desire:).  Enjoy!!

I hope you make these mouthwatering waffles and if you do, tag me on Instagram @goodeatsbymimi.  I would love to see your pictures!
