Sourdough Waffles Recipe

Sourdough Blueberry Waffles 

 

My last blog post talked about an antique waffle iron that has already become a treasured kitchen implement. It's easy to use, the waffles don't stick, and they come out golden brown every time. How could I not love it? Naturally, I've been making sourdough waffles with it, and I thought I should share the recipe.

Waffles made with sourdough are light and delicate. I think they're much better than those made with conventional recipes. Hope you give them a try.

In keeping with other recipes I've been sharing, this one produces two waffles, just right for one or two people. Of course, I haven't figured out how to make waffles camping across country on my motorcycle while doing a book promotion tour for my mystery novel yet. These will have to be made at home, unless anyone has a suggestion that's suitable for camping.
