Description

Light and airy, these Lemon Soufflé Pancakes are a delightful twist on traditional pancakes. Infused with bright lemon flavor and topped with a dusting of powdered sugar and fresh berries, they make a perfect breakfast treat.


Ingredients

Main Batter:

  • 3 large eggs (separated)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (divided)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Additional:

  • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter (for the skillet)
  • Powdered sugar and fresh berries for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Main Batter: Separate the eggs; whisk yolks with 2 tbsp sugar, milk, flour, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt.
  2. Whipped Egg Whites: Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Fold into yolk mixture.
  3. Cooking: Heat skillet, scoop batter, cook pancakes until set and fluffy.
  4. Serving: Dust with powdered sugar, top with berries.

Notes

  • For extra height, stack two pancakes with whipped cream between.
  • Avoid overmixing batter for airy texture.
  • Use a ring mold for perfect shape if desired.
