There’s something about warm pancakes with a citrus twist that feels light and comforting at the same time.
These take it further.
Fluffy little pancake cubes with a bright lemon center that melts into every warm, golden bite. Soft on the outside, smooth and slightly tangy inside—perfectly balanced and easy to love.
What you’ll need
For the pancake batter:
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 egg
• ¾ cup milk
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• Zest of 1 lemon
For the lemon center:
• ½ cup lemon curd
• 2 tbsp whipped cream or cream cheese
How it comes together
In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder.
Add the egg, milk, melted butter, and lemon zest, then whisk until smooth.
In another bowl, mix the lemon curd with whipped cream or cream cheese until creamy.
Cook the batter in a waffle cube maker or small pan until lightly golden.
Cut into cubes if needed, then gently open or inject the lemon filling into the center.
Warm slightly before serving for the best texture.
The best part
Break one open while it’s still warm.
The lemon center melts into the soft pancake, creating a light, bright, and slightly tangy bite that feels fresh and comforting.
