I often feel like the discard from my sourdough starter is wasteful, so I try my best to use it in other ways. One of the best and tastiest ways is to repurpose the discard into waffles. You can make the batter base of this recipe the night before you plan to cook waffles, or just a few hours prior. This is a fantastic weekend breakfast when everyone gets to sleep in!
