Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine buttermilk, egg, melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and poppy seeds until smooth.
  3. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture until just combined; small lumps are okay.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake; cook until bubbles form (2-3 minutes), then flip and cook until golden brown (another 2-3 minutes).
  6. Repeat until all batter is used up and serve warm with your choice of toppings.
