I love sourdough! These waffles are so easy to make and are perfect with the smoked trout, caper butter and lemony cream cheese. I thought we’d have some left – but my husband ate a lot!!
Making the Cream Cheese and Caper Butter
Start by making these. They can be kept in the refrigerator for a couple days, but be sure to bring the cream cheese to room temp and reheat the butter when you’re ready to use it. The trout should also be at room temperature when serving.
Place the cream cheese, lemon zest and cream in a food processor and process until smooth.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the capers and simmer on low for three to four minutes. Set aside.
The Waffles and Smoked Trout
Mix the sourdough starter, milk, oil and eggs together. Whisk it until well blended.
Sift the dry ingredients together to be sure they are equally distributed.
Stir into the wet ingredients. Let the batter rest about 15 to 20 minutes.
Cook using your waffle iron’s instructions.
Serve with cream cheese, smoked trout and topped with caper butter. Garnish with some chopped parsley.

The combination of flavors is out of this world. Tangy lemon, smoked trout, and the caper butter tasted so good together. It was like a restaurant meal!
I’ve tried these sourdough waffles with smoked trout, lemony cream cheese, and caper butter, and they’re a game changer! The flavors complement each other perfectly for a savory breakfast or brunch option.
Wow I didn’t realize waffles and smoked trout go together – but this combination is actually really tasty! Thanks for the recipe!
Absolutely delicious! The lemon did a good job of cutting through the strong flavours of the fish. Made it for breakfast and was so good!
The lemon cream cheese flavor in this is amazing! Great flavors for waffles!
