Equipment
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon poppy seeds
- Cooking oil for frying
Instructions
- Combine milk and vinegar in a small bowl and whisk together. This makes homemade buttermilk. Set it aside for 5 minutes to sour.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix together.
- Next, whisk egg, butter, vanilla, lemon zest, and lemon juice into the homemade buttermilk.
- Pour the wet ingredients into flour mixture and whisk together until just combined. Don’t over mix.
- Fold in the poppy seeds.
- Preheat an electric skillet to 350 degrees F.
- Coat the skillet with cooking oil.
- Pour four equal circles of batter (about 1/4 cup each) onto the skillet and cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown, about 3 minutes.
- Flip them over gently with a spatula and cook until the second side is golden brown, about 2 minutes.
- Serve with a pat of butter and some maple syrup if desired.
