Lemon poppy seed pancakes

Ingredients

For the glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 4 Tbsp lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
  • ½ tsp poppy seeds

For the pancakes

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • 1½ cups whole milk
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice (from about 1 lemon)
  • 2 tsp poppy seeds
  • 4 tsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)

Method

  1. Make the glaze: In a small bowl, make the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, 4 Tbsp lemon juice, and ½ tsp poppy seeds. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the milk, oil, butter, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp poppy seeds, and about 1 Tbsp of the lemon zest (reserve the rest of the zest for topping).
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and mix until just blended.
  5. Plug in the Everything Maker and let it preheat until the green light turns on, about 3 minutes.
  6. Open the lid and spoon about 2 heaping Tbsp of batter for each pancake onto the cooking plate. You should be able to fit four 4-inch pancakes.
  7. Cook with the lid open until bubbles form on the tops of the pancakes, 3 to 4 minutes.
  8. Flip the pancakes and cook on second side until cooked through and golden, about 2 minutes more.
  9. Transfer the pancakes to a plate. Repeat steps 6–9 to cook the remaining pancakes.
  10. Top the pancakes with the glaze and reserved lemon zest. Serve warm.
