Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup of sourdough starter
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1/2 cup apple sauce
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup (optional)
- 3/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups flour (can be gluten-free)
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Mix the sourdough starter, water, apple sauce, maple syrup, and oil in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. I have tested this recipe with regular flour and GF flour. See the section above for notes on making gluten-free waffles.
- To cook the waffles, follow the directions for your waffle iron. Vegan waffles tend to stick, so I recommend brushing the waffle iron with oil before cooking, even if it’s non-stick.
Notes
- The baking soda isn’t required, but I find that it reacts with the sourdough to make the waffles a bit fluffier. If you want to skip the baking soda, then increase the salt to 1/2 tsp.
- I don’t usually add any sweetener to my waffles, however, we’re used to a sugar-free diet. Sourdough starter naturally gives these waffles a savory flavor. So feel free to balance the sourness by adding maple syrup to the batter.
