Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

In a large bowl, mix the sourdough starter, milk, and eggs until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar.

Combine the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients and mix until just incorporated.

Melt the butter and fold it into the batter gently.

Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or oil.

Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using enough to cover the surface.

Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with toppings of choice.

Repeat with the remaining batter.
