Time 10m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup sourdough starter
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup any whole grain flour (see notes)
1 cup water or 1 cup milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons oil or 2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, stir together the starter, flours and water (or milk).
  • Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let it rest one to twelve hours. I usually mix it the night before.
  • In the morning while you're waiting for the waffle iron or pancake pan to heat up, mix the egg, oil, and salt into the flour mixture. Just before cooking, stir in the baking soda.
  • Using a quarter or half cup measuring cup ladle the batter onto the hot pan. For waffles cook according to the waffle iron directions, usually around 5 minutes, for pancakes flip when the edges start to bubble and the surface loses it's gloss.
  • Notes- You can use your choice of whole grains. I like rice flour, available at Whole Foods or health food stores. It adds a light crunchy texture to waffles. I've also used quinoa, barley, spelt, and coconut flours with great success. (If you use half cornmeal it makes a most excellent supper when topped with chili or beans n cheese!).
  • This recipe doubles or triples beautifully if you're feeding a crowd.
  • This recipe doesn't call for sugar, as I've found that using sugar in waffles makes them stick to the waffle iron. Without sugar they never stick (no need to grease the iron) and with the sweet flavor of whole grains you truly won't miss it. For pancakes you can add a tablespoon or two of sugar if you must.
  • A teaspoon of vanilla in the batter makes them smell terrific as they bake but we don't notice much difference in the taste, so I save that for company :).
  • I love my Hamilton Beach Flip 'n Fluff ($19 on amazon) and it makes 9 4" waffles with this recipe.

Time 19m

Number Of Ingredients 10

The Night Before
1/2 cup unsalted butter (115g)
1 cup milk (225g)
1 cup all purpose flour starter (255g)
1 tsp salt (5g)
1 Tbsp packed brown sugar (13g)
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour (180g)
The Next Morning
2 eggs
1/4 tsp baking soda

Steps:

  • Heat the butter and milk together in a pan until the butter is melted, and then let them cool to room temperature.
  • Mix all ingredients to form a thick batter, cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, and let it stand at room temperature for 8-14 hours. If you do this before going to bed, you'll have the batter ready for breakfast the next day.
  • The next morning, preheat your waffle iron for 10-15 minutes.
  • Uncover the batter and whisk in the eggs and baking soda.
  • Pour 1/2 to 3/4 cups of batter on the hot waffle iron and close the lid.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES AND WAFFLES

Categories     Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups flour
2 cup water
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 tablespoons honey
For waffles add 2 tablespoons melted butter or oil

Steps:

  • At night add flour and water to starter. Thicker batter works best for waffles. Next morning take out 1/2 of batter and mix with soda salt, egg and honey. Mix well. For extra light pancakes add 1 teaspoon baking powder. You can add 1/4 cup corn meal, blueberries, or chopped nuts if you wish.

Tips:

  • Be patient: The sourdough starter needs time to develop and mature. It typically takes 5-7 days, but it can take longer depending on the temperature and humidity of your environment.
  • Keep your starter well-maintained: Once your starter is mature, you need to keep it well-maintained by feeding it regularly. This means adding equal parts flour and water to the starter and stirring it well.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your waffles and pancakes will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your waffles and pancakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Cook the waffles and pancakes on a hot griddle: A hot griddle will help to create crispy waffles and pancakes.
  • Serve the waffles and pancakes immediately: Waffles and pancakes are best served immediately after they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Sourdough waffles and pancakes are a delicious and versatile breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little planning and effort, you can make sourdough waffles and pancakes that are light, fluffy, and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast treat, give sourdough waffles or pancakes a try!
