Sourdough Whole Grain Waffles

*Note: I've decided to begin a sourdough experiment, so I'll be posting more sourdough recipes in a month or two. Stay tuned.

Here is my first post of a sourdough recipe. I posted a recipe for a sourdough start last week, so if you made the start now you can have a recipe to use it with.

These waffles are awesome. They are a great way to start you day, meaning, you won't be hungry until lunch because they are filling. We actually have them for dinner more than for breakfast. We usually serve them with scrambled eggs with ham and cheese and some fruit.


Sourdough Whole Grain Waffles
By: Steven & Lindsay G.

1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup quick oats
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 2/3 cup milk
1 cup sourdough starter
2 Tbsp oil
2 eggs, separated (whites whipped and set aside)

In mixing bowl pour in sourdough start (feed your start 1 cup water and 1 cup all-purpose flour and stir until combined). Add all other ingredients except the egg whites, mix until combined. In separate bowl add egg whites and with a hand mixer whip eggs until stiff. Fold egg whites into the batter. Pour into greased waffle iron and cook according to waffle iron's instruction. I like mine softer so I usually pull them out before the iron tells me it's done. My husband likes them a little crispier so we cook them the full time.
