Lemon Sour Cream Pancakes Recipes

THIN LEMON PANCAKES WITH SWEETENED SOUR CREAM AND BLUEBERRIES

Steps:

• Puree the milk, flour, 2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar, the lemon zest, a large pinch of salt and the eggs in a blender.
• Whisk the sour cream, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and the remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar together in a small bowl.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour half of the batter into the skillet and cook until set, without flipping, 2 to 4 minutes. Gently slide onto a plate. Make another pancake with the remaining butter and batter. Cut each pancake in half and set on a dessert plate.
• Fold the pancake halves into triangles and dollop with the sweetened cream and top with the blueberries. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve.

LIGHT, FLUFFY AND RICH PANCAKES

Steps:

• Beat together the ricotta or cottage cheese, sour cream or yogurt and egg yolks. Combine baking soda, flour, salt and sugar. Beat egg whites until fairly stiff but not dry.
• Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat while you finish batter. Stir flour mixture into cheese mixture, blending well but not beating. Stir in lemon juice and zest, then gently fold in beaten egg whites; they should remain somewhat distinct in batter.
• Add about 1 tablespoon butter or oil to griddle or skillet and coat surface. When it is hot, add batter by the heaping tablespoon, making sure to include some egg white in each spoonful. Cook until lightly browned on bottom, 3 to 5 minutes, then turn and cook second side. Serve immediately.

LEMON-SOUR CREAM PANCAKES

• Combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
• Mix eggs, sour cream, lemon zest and juice in medium bowl until blended. Stir in flour mixture.

• Serve topped with blueberries and syrup.

SOUR CREAM PANCAKES

Steps:

• Microwave 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter in a small bowl until melted.
• In a large bowl, using a fork, stir flour with sugar, baking powder and salt. Make a well in centre.
• In a medium bowl, whisk eggs with milk, sour cream, melted butter and vanilla.
• Pour into flour mixture and stir just until mixed.
• Immediately melt about 1 tsp (5 mL) butter in a large frying pan set over medium heat. (Or save time by cooking on a large griddle or simultaneously in 2 pans.) Use a 1/4-cup (50-mL) measure to pour batter into hot pan. Depending on size of pan, add 1 to 3 more pancakes. Cook until surfaces are covered with bubbles and edges are lightly browned, from 2 to 3 minute Turn and continue to cook until pancakes are golden, from 2 to 3 minute.
• Place on a plate and keep warm in a low-temperature oven while cooking remaining pancakes.
• Delicious drizzled with maple syrup and scattered with fresh berries. Great with bacon or sausages.

LEMON, RICOTTA AND SOUR CREAM PANCAKES (LIGHT VERSION)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix ricotta, sour cream, regular tub margarine, vanilla, buttermilk, sugar, cinnamon, salt, lemon zest, and one whole egg until incorporated.
• In a mixer fitted with a whip attachment, beat four egg whites to stiff peaks.
• Sift flour and baking powder into the bowl of ricotta and other wet ingredients, and stir until barely combined.
• In several batches, gently fold egg whites into the batter (do not re-stir the batter again after this, or it will deflate).
• Ladle approximately ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto prepared griddle. Cook until bottom is golden brown and bubbles start to form. Flip and cook second side until done.
• We love these topped with lemon curd, but you could also try them with maple syrup.
