It’s been months. My quest for the “just right” gluten-free sourdough waffle recipe is over. I’ve attempted getting this right so many times I’ve lost track. Now, not far from where it began, I’ll share.
For whatever reason, I can’t make gluten-free waffles with eggs turn out. Weird, I think, because that is what makes normal waffles so good. Neither are there milk products or substitutes of any kind. They didn’t work to my satisfaction either. The best part about this recipe is that if you’re not eating gluten-free, you can still make this without a great deal of modification. So here we have it- super simple if you’re inclined to utilize your sourdough culture.
I find the absolutely best topping right now is a thin smear of apricot jam, a light twirl of molasses and a heaping of satsuma or mandarin oranges and pomegranate seeds. Weekend perfect. Enjoy.
