SAM'S SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• Mix flour, 1 1/2 cup water, and sourdough starter together in a large bowl to make batter. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let sit in a warm place until filled with large holes and bubbles, 4 hours to overnight.
• Stir oil, eggs, sugar, and salt into the batter; mix well to combine.
• Whisk 1 tablespoon water and baking soda together in a small bowl until dissolved. Fold into the batter with a rubber spatula.
• Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
• Pour batter onto preheated iron and bake until crisp and golden, according to manufacturer's instructions, about 3 minutes.

SOURDOUGH SAMS

Steps:

• Sift dry ingredients, stir into liquid, roll out and cut with regular donut cutter.
• Then heat some oil in a deep fryer to 390 degrees F and fry.
• Just before serving dust with powdered or cinnamon sugar.
• NOTE:
• These doughnuts are virtually greasless.
• And if you want you can make several batches at a time and freeze.
• They keep well and to me taste after a while in the freezer.
• Take out as many as needed and thaw and put sugar on or eat plain.

SOURDOUGH PANCAKES

Steps:

• The night before, stir your sourdough starter and remove one cup.
• Place the 1 cup of starter in a glass or stoneware bowl at least 6 cups in size (don't use plastic or metal bowls for this- they give off flavors to the batter).
• Stir in the 2 cups of tepid water, the flour, and the sugar until smooth.
• Cover lightly (you can use plastic wrap but don't seal off the air going into the bowl) and place in a non-drafty place and allow to sit overnight.
• The next morning, remove one cup of the batter and pour it back into the mother starter (what you removed this from in the first place; you should keep this refrigerated).
• Start to heat your griddle (heat to 370F), oiling it lightly if needed.
• Stir the egg, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and melted butter into the batter.
• Drop by 1/4-cupfuls onto the hot griddle and flip them with a spatula when they bubble and get golden on the underside.
• Keep pancakes warm while finishing the others.
• Serve pancakes hot with butter and syrup, if desired.
• You can also easily make blueberry pancakes with this; just dust them with a little flour before folding into the pancake batter.
