INGREDIENTS

• ¾ cup unsweetened plant milk
• Juice from one large lemon (about 3–4 tbsp of lemon juice)
• Zest from one large lemon
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 ½ tbsp poppy seeds
• ¼ cup unsweetened plant based yogurt
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

METHOD

In a small bowl create a “buttermilk” mixture by combining milk, lemon zest and juice and set aside.

Combine all remaining dry ingredients in a medium mixing bowl and whisk well.

Add in the yogurt, maple syrup, vanilla, and “buttermilk” mixture and whisk into the dry ingredients until a batter forms.

You do not need to make the batter perfectly smooth or lump free.

Preheat a greased griddle to medium heat and spoon 1/4 cup of the batter on to your griddle and cook the pancake for 3-4 minutes or until golden before flipping to the other side to cook for about 2-3 minutes or until golden.

Repeat this process with the remaining pancake batter. Once done cooking, serve as desired.
