Paulius Lemon-Sugar Pancakes



PAULIUS PANCAKES



Use your regular pancake batter recipe(or boxed type)
Prepare as usual. (Paulius likes to use 7-up or Sprite or Sierra Mist to his batter in place of milk too.)

!!!VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!-DO NOT PUT BUTTER ON TOP OF THESE PANCAKES!!!!!!!!!

Instead of topping with syrup, just DRIZZLE liberally with lemon juice and then sprinkle sugar over top.


Some like more sugar than others, so start with a Tablespoonful and add more if needed until you get the flavor you like.
**********************************************************************************
I know it sounds odd to us USA'ers who think Maple, Blueberry, or Strawberry Syrup is the "be all-end all" of pancake or flap-jack toppings, but from the first time Paulius made these for me I LOVED the lighter taste of them.

I made pancakes about a month ago and we were out of lemon-juice so I tried the syrup again, and it just kinda stuck in my throat. WAYYYY too heavy for me now.

Try it!

(*Sorry baby about outting your recipe but those pancakes are WAY too delicious to keep to ourselves......these are our friends, after all.*)

WRONG!

You can't make my pancakes with pancake mix. Pancake mix is powdered puss for the devil's anal boils.

Now you've completely lost your appetites...

Mix about a cup and a half of milk with two eggs and slowly whisk in plain white flour. Keep adding flour until when you dip a finger in the batter, it sticks to it. You're looking for a slightly runny milkshake kinda texture.

Leave it to stand for about 5 minutes, give one more whisk...and then cook as usual. The only difference is you want the pancake to be thin, more of a crepe.

Then, sprinkle liberally with lemon juice and add sugar to taste.

Thanks for posting the recipe!

Interesting. The closest thing I can imagine are those lemon cookies, that are somewhat sweet and tart at the same time. Any similarity in flavor at all?

Sunny said...

Yep- very similar taste, but sooooo much better.


Dang- I wonder if he'll make em for me for dinner.........
