How to Make Lemon Buttercream Pancakes With Blueberries

  1. Prepare all ingredients: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing and texture.
  2. Whisk dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well combined.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups buttermilk, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter, and 2 large egg yolks until smooth.
  4. Add flavor: Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and the zest of 1 lemon into the wet ingredients.
  5. Gently combine wet and dry: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Rest the batter: Let the batter rest for 15 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, resulting in lighter and fluffier pancakes.
  7. Incorporate egg whites: In a clean bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter.
  8. Cook the pancakes: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  9. Flip and finish: Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Sprinkle a few blueberries on top during the last minute of cooking on the first side.
  10. Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately with extra blueberries, maple syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream.
