Ingredients
- 150 g All-purpose flour
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 250 ml Milk
- 2 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp Lemon zest
- 1 Egg
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter (melted)
- 200 g Blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tbsp Granulated sugar (for sauce)
- 50 ml Water
- 1 tsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water (for cornstarch slurry)
- 2 tsp Powdered sugar (for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the milk, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, egg, and melted butter. Whisk until well blended.
Step 3
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Step 4
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray.
Step 5
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2 minutes), then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 6
To make the blueberry sauce, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, and 50 ml of water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
Step 7
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the blueberries, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens (about 2 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
Step 8
To assemble the lemon stacks, layer the pancakes on a plate, spooning the blueberry sauce between each layer.
Step 9
Dust the top with powdered sugar and serve immediately. Enjoy!
