Light And Crisp Sourdough Waffles Food

CINNAMON SUGAR SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl.
• Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Add the leftover starter, milk, 2 tablespoons (28 g) of melted butter, and egg into a large bowl. Whisk well to combine. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt and continue to whisk until smooth. If the batter seems too thick, add more milk to thin out the texture. This will all depend on the consistency of your sourdough starter.
• Lightly coat the waffle iron with cooking spray. Ladle some of the batter into the waffle iron to fill the pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Transfer to a cutting board and brush lightly with some of the remaining melted butter. Press the waffle into the cinnamon sugar to coat on both sides. Repeat to cook the rest of the waffles.
• To serve, top your waffles with the pineapple, mixed berries, and coconut flakes. Enjoy with sweet maple syrup on the side.
• TIP: Once completely cool, these waffles can be frozen for up to 2 months. Cover in plastic wrap and a layer of foil before freezing. Bake frozen at 350°F (180°C) until warmed through.

LIGHT AND CRISP SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat butter and milk in a pan until the butter is melted and then let cool to room temperature.
• Add the milk-butter mixture to the starter, salt, sugar and flour in a large mixing bowl (this needs to be at least double the capacity of the batter). Mix these together to form a thick batter.
• Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 8-14 hours. If you do this before going to bed, you'll have the batter ready for breakfast the next day.
• Preheat your waffle iron until hot.
• Uncover the batter and whisk in the egg and baking soda.
• Pour 1/3 to 3/4 cups of batter on the hot waffle iron and close the lid. Let cook for 3-5 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

LIGHT AND CRISPY WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat traditional waffle iron to medium. Meanwhile, stir flour, Rice Krispies, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in large bowl. Whisk egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and oil together in medium bowl.
• With electric mixer or balloon whisk, beat egg whites in bowl to soft peaks. Pour milk mixture over dry ingredients and whisk until combined. Whisk in beaten whites until just combined. Do not overmix; a few streaks of whites should be visible.
• Pour 2/3 cup batter into center of preheated waffle iron and use back of dinner spoon to spread batter toward outer edges (batter should reach about 1/2 inch from edges of iron before lid is closed). Close lid and cook until deep golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately.

LIGHT, CRISP WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200°F and heat the waffle iron. Mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Measure the buttermilk, milk, and vegetable oil in a Pyrex measuring cup; mix in the egg yolk and set aside.
• In another bowl, beat the egg white almost to soft peaks. Sprinkle in the sugar and continue to beat until the peaks are firm and glossy. Beat in the vanilla.
• Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk until just mixed. Drop the whipped egg white onto the batter in dollops and fold in with a spatula until just incorporated.
• Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron (mine takes about 2/3 cup) and cook until the waffle is crisp and nutty brown (follow the manufacturer's instructions for timing at first and then adjust to your liking). Set the waffle directly on the oven rack to keep it warm and crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter, holding the waffles in the oven (don't stack them). When all the waffles are cooked, serve immediately.
• For Whole-Grain Waffles: Add 1/4 cup wheat germ to the dry ingredients.
• For Chocolate Chip Waffles: Stir 1/2 cup coarsely chopped chocolate chips (or 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips) into the batter.
• For Cornmeal Waffles: Substitute 1/2 cup cornmeal for 1/2 cup of the flour (keep the cornstarch).
• For Cranberry Orange Waffles: Stir 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest and 1/2 cup coarsely chopped dried cranberries into the batter.

SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• Night Before:.
• Combine all the Basic Batter ingredients (starter, flour, sugar and water in a large glass or plastic container -- be sure the container is large enough that batter does not overflow as it produces caron dioxide and expands.
• Allow to sit at room temperature, loosely covered for 6 to 12 hours. (Note: If not using the basic batter right away after proofing, or have some left over, store in a glass or plastic container, cover tightly and refrigerate.).
• Next Morning --
• Beat egg whites until form stiff peaks.
• In medium bowl, beat egg yolks, milk and butter.
• Stir in Basic Batter.(Store the balance in the refrigerator for future use. See Recipe #160205 for uses of the left over batter).
• In a separate bowl, sift together flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and baking soda together;
• Stir into the egg yolk mixture.
• Allow mixture to rest for 10 minutes.
• Gently fold in egg whites.
• Ladle batter on to preheated waffle iron.
• Follow manufactures instructions.

GRANDMA'S SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• The night before you want your waffles, mix the flour, yeast, and lukewarm water.
• Put in tall bowl, as it will rise quite a bit.
• Cover with towel and let sit in room temperature overnight.
• In the morning, uncover and stir.
• Don't be put off by the texture. It is supposed to look weird. Really.
• Add the eggs and oil/milk, enough to make it thin enough to use.
• It might be a little tough to make it all mix together, because it tends to be a bit sticky, but keep at it.
• Usually helps if you've mixed the eggs a little in a separate bowl, so you're not dealing with a whole yolk.
• In small, separate bowl combine baking soda and sugar. Mix until no lumps.
• Add to soda & sugar mixture to bowl with waffle dough.
• Stir until mixed in.
• Let sit about fifteen minutes. (A good time to start preheating your waffle iron.)
• Spray waffle iron with cooking spray. You'll need to repeat this occasionally as the spray wears off.
• Experiment with amounts of waffle dough to put in the iron and times. For us, we use a ladle and cook each waffle for 3-5 minutes. Those sizes and times work perfectly for us, but I'm sure waffle irons vary in size and cooking times.
• You can get creative with adding other ingredients. I haven't tried any of these yet, but I've heard adding crumbled bacon, blueberries, grated apples, etc. to the mix before making the waffles works well.
• For us, the recipe usually yields 8-9 waffles, enough for 3-4 people. It might differ for your waffle iron.
