All about Sourdough Waffles
Like many on a Sourdough journey, you envision loaves upon loaves of delicious sourdough bread. But it turns out those sourdough loaves take a lot of time and practice to make. In order to keep your sourdough starter alive, you continually feed it and must find ways to use the starter or dump it. In the spirit of not wasting food, even sourdough discard isn’t something that we can afford to waste.
While our sourdough starter has made quite a few loaves of bread, pizza crust, tortillas, brownies, bagels, cookies and even muffins. We are still looking for ways to use up sourdough starter and found that pancakes and waffles are another delicious option. You can make them for breakfast or even a breakfast dinner which everyone loaves too!
You don’t need very many ingredients to make these waffles. Like most waffles made from scratch, they’re a simple and easy to make recipe. One must have to make waffles is a waffle iron of course. Feel free to use your favorite one!

How to store leftover Sourdough Waffles
We typically store leftover waffles in the refrigerator and reheat them in the microwave, air fryer or waffle iron. After a couple of days in the refrigerator you’ll then want to transfer them to the freezer for longer storage.
