Vegan Sourdough Waffles

Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour (see notes)
• 1/2 cup unfed sourdough starter (sourdough discard)
• 1 cup unsweetened soy milk
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. 1

   The night before you want waffles; stir together the flour, sourdough starter, soy milk, maple syrup, and vinegar. Cover with a clean dishtowel and place on the counter overnight, or for roughly 12 hours.

2. 2

   When ready to make your waffles, preheat your waffle maker and set aside.

3. 3

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flaxseed and water and let sit for ~5 minutes or until thickened. To the same bowl, whisk in the oil, baking soda, vanilla and salt. Pour into the sourdough base and stir to combine. The mixture should be fairly thick, as shown in the photo above.

4. 4

   Scoop ~1/4-1/3 cup of the mixture into each section of your waffle iron (depending on size) and cook according to manufacturers directions. Remove and continue with the rest of the batter.
