One of our Saturday traditions is whipping up a batch of these gluten free waffles for breakfast. What a great start to the weekend!

Now that I’m exploring the world of gluten-free sourdough I am so excited for easy recipes like this one.

After I tried these for the first time, I was absolutely hooked! They taste so amazing and even my husband can’t tell that they are gluten-free.

Did I mention that these are extremely easy to make? Just mix some ingredients together for the “overnight sponge” then simply add a few more ingredients in the morning and voila, you have homemade, delicious sourdough waffles for the whole family to enjoy!

Why buttermilk?

Buttermilk adds a delicious taste and great texture to gluten-free baked goods. If you don’t have any on hand, simply sub with watered down yogurt or 1 cup of milk and 1 tbsp of vinegar. Mix and let set for 10 minutes before using.
