Ingredients:
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup active sourdough starter
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Maple syrup, for serving
- Fresh berries, for serving (optional)
Directions:
- Mixing the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, active sourdough starter, and milk. Stir until well combined and smooth.
- Adding Eggs and Salt: Crack the eggs into the bowl and add salt. Mix until the eggs are fully incorporated into the batter.
- Adding Baking Soda: Sprinkle the baking soda over the batter and gently fold it in until evenly distributed. Allow the batter to rest for about 10 minutes while preheating the waffle iron.
- Preheating the Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to its instructions. Make sure it’s nice and hot before pouring in the batter.
- Cooking the Waffles: Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter per waffle (adjust depending on the size of your waffle iron). Cook until golden brown and crisp, typically about 4-5 minutes.
- Serving: Serve the waffles hot, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with fresh berries if desired.
