I took a shortcut with this recipe and it still turned out great. I used 1 cup ready made pancake mix and followed the directions on the back of the box (something like add one egg, milk, and some oil). Then for the lemon poppyseed part I added the zest of one entire lemon, the juice of half a lemon, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and one teaspoon poppyseeds. Quicker and easier than making from scratch and tasted amazing!

Followed the recipe as written, although used fresh squeezed lemon juice and I doubled the lemon zest. I will make it again but I will double the lemon juice as the family did not really taste the lemon.

These were pretty good, very lemony. I followed the recipe exactly for a triple batch, served with bacon. We tried it with store bought blueberry syrup and regular pancake syrup and I was surprised to find we preferred the regular syrup with these. My children (3 and 8) enjoyed them just fine but my husband was NOT impressed. He likes my lemon bars but did not appriciate me "messing" with his pancakes. I am freezing the leftovers for quick breakfasts on days he is away on business trips.

Great recipe! The pancakes were delicious. If I were to make the recipe again, I would probably omit the sugar from the batter...as someone who likes to eat pancakes with maple syrup, it was unnecessary. Additionally, I think the recipe needs more lemon zest. I used the zest of one whole lemon and the taste didn't come through as much as I would have liked.

These are the bomb! Served alongside bananas with softened peanut butter on top, glazed with maple syrup--this was the perfect Shrove Tuesday spoiler event. It was so good we made a second batch for seconds. Some considerations--add about 1/4-1/3 more cup than what is being called for if you do not want so thick of a pancake; make sure to use fresh lemon juice (and not the liquid concentrate!)

Thanks. This is the best pancake recipe I've found on this site. For one thing, the recipe actually makes 8 full-sized pancakes. They had great flavor and cooked quick without burning. I did everything as written except I used dried grated lemon peel instead of zest and I used orange juice instead of milk (I was out of milk). I also used rice vinegar because that's what I had.

Excellent, excellent, excellent. I have made these three times in the past two day! Wonderful flavor and fluffy. I even used all whole-wheat flour, and 2 tablespoons of honey instead of sugar, and they turned out absolutely wonderfully. Thank you for the recipe!

I followed the review where they substituted more lemon juice rather than adding the vinegar. They turned out great! Definitely going to use this recipe again :)

Delicious - like a light and fluffy lemon-poppy muffin! I doubled the recipe and used half whole wheat flour. I used 4 tsp lemon juice and 1 tsp vinegar instead of all the called for vinegar, and the zest of one lemon. Yum. Kids loved them, too.
