Pancakes with sugar and lemon is a classic and delightful combination that’s easy to make. Here’s a simple recipe for delicious pancakes with sugar and lemon:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- Zest of one lemon
- Butter or cooking spray for the pan
Toppings:
- Powdered sugar
- Lemon wedges
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, milk, egg, melted butter, and lemon zest.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
- Heat a griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or cooking spray to coat the surface.
- Pour 1/4 cup portions of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until the other side is golden brown.
- Remove the pancakes from the griddle and repeat until all the batter is used.
- Serve the pancakes warm, topped with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and a drizzle of fresh lemon juice.
- Optionally, you can add extra slices of lemon as a garnish.
These pancakes are fluffy and flavorful with the combination of sugar and lemon. They make for a delightful breakfast or brunch treat. Enjoy!
