Deliciously fluffy pancakes infused with fresh lemon zest and crunchy poppy seeds, perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp poppy seeds
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon zest
  • 1 cup milk (whole or almond)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tbsp melted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients and place them on your countertop.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, poppy seeds, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until well blended.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined (a few lumps are okay).
  5. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, coating with a little butter.
  6. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  7. Flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Transfer the cooked pancakes to a warm oven while you cook the remaining batter.
  9. Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup and garnished with lemon zest or fresh fruits.

Notes

Let your batter sit for a few minutes to enhance the texture of the pancakes. Avoid overmixing to ensure fluffiness.
