Rye Sourdough Discard Waffles

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Rye Sourdough Discard Waffles
Pancake Rye Rye Flour Sourdough YQ YQ Flour

by Orfhlaith Noone June 27, 2025

Here’s an extra incentive to feed your sourdough starter: waffles! Orfhlaith Noone keeps the daily discard in a jar in the fridge and once she has enough she makes a batch of waffles for a weekend breakfast treat. 

These waffles are great with traditional sweet toppings like maple syrup and berries, but they also work well with a savoury breakfast spread. If you're going savoury, reduce the sugar to 1 tsp - but don’t leave it out entirely. The sugar gives the dormant starter a little boost.

The batter will keep well in the fridge for a few days, so you don’t need to cook them all at once. Cooked waffles also freeze well, just pop them in the toaster to reheat.

If you don’t have a waffle iron the batter makes excellent pancakes too.

Makes approximately 10 waffles, depending on your waffle iron.

Ingredients

The night before:
  • 100g Sourdough Discard (if using heart bakery's sourdough starter, ensure you increase the hydration of the discard to 100%)
  • 50g Rye Flour, Stoneground Wholemeal, Organic
  • 50g YQ Wheat Flour, Stoneground, Wholemeal
  • 2tsp White or Brown Sugar
  • 175ml Butter Milk
The next morning:
  • 1 Egg
  • 15g Butter, melted
  • 1 tsp Baking powder
  • Butter, for frying

Method

  1. The night before you want to make waffles, mix together the sourdough discard, dark rye flour, wholemeal YQ flour, sugar, and buttermilk. Cover and leave out on the counter.
  2. The next morning, the batter should have risen slightly and look a little bubbly.
  3. Once the butter has melted, let it cool slightly. Then beat it with the egg and baking powder. Pour this mixture into the batter and whisk to combine.
  4. Heat your waffle iron over medium high heat. Lightly brush with butter, then scoop in the batter, about 50g per waffle. (But this will depend on the size of your waffle maker).
  5. Cook for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden and crisp.

Malt Chocolate Chip Cookies

Wholegrain Malted Chocolate Chip Cookies

November 20, 2025

This recipe from Anna Warden makes for a cookie that is crunchy on the outside, and chewy in the middle - to our mind the best combination. The malted wheat flour and coffee create a gorgeous depth of flavour and a moreish caramelly base which pairs perfectly with dark chocolate and sea salt. These cookies will keep in the freezer (unbaked) for a couple of weeks, and so are the perfect thing to have to hand for times you want a cookie or for when you might just need a cookie.
