One thing I have been obsessed with lately is lemon everything, so it’s just a given that making lemony sourdough discard waffles recipe made lemony was bound to happen. These fluffy waffles are pretty hands off. Just prepare your sponge the night before (or the morning of, if you are doing breakfast for dinner), then finish whipping them together 5 minutes before you’re ready to slap the dough onto the hot waffle iron.

Adding the Rest and Cooking
