Sourdough Waffles

As long as there is starter on your counter, you can make sourdough waffles. These are an admirable way to start the day. Sourdough waffles are extremely light and crisp. They tend to soak up that butter and maple syrup as though they were meant for each other, while their distinctive tang helps balance the sugar and fat. Adding some crunchy bacon bits to the batter takes them up another notch. They make a wonderful base for fruit and ice cream sundaes, topped with chunks of fresh strawberries and bananas and creamy vanilla ice cream. If you want to try something different, serve sourdough waffles under poached eggs, crisp bacon, and hollandaise—it’s the breakfast of champions in our house.
