Citrus Pancakes Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy. Sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt over the eggs and stir to combine. Stir in the yogurt, milk, butter, vanilla and orange zest until smooth.
• Heat a griddle over medium-high heat until a few drops of water flicked onto the surface skitter across it. Lightly grease the griddle with butter or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Pour 1/3 cup of the batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and the batter is set, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes more. Keep warm until all the pancakes are cooked. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the griddle as needed.
• Top the pancakes with orange sections and honey. Makes 12 pancakes;.

Steps:

• To make citrus-maple syrup: In a small saucepan, whisk together maple syrup and cornflour (corn starch) and bring just to the boil. Turn off heat but allow to cook for one minute on hob to thicken. Remove from hob and stir in blood orange segments. Cover and set aside while making pancakes.
• To make pancakes: With a balloon whisk, whisk the egg for a minute until frothy. Add the milk, orange zest, 1/3 cup orange juice, melted butter and honey.
• Combine dry ingredients in a small bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk JUST until incorporated.
• Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat until hot and skim a pat of butter across the surface. Pour 1/4 cup measures of the pancake batter into your skillet, ensuring the edges of one pancake don't spread out into the next one (in other words: keep your distance!).
• Griddle until bubbles form on the pancakes and just start to burst. At this point, carefully flip them over with a spatula to cook other side to golden-brown. Remove cooked pancakes to a platter and keep hot in oven while griddling remainder of batter.
• Serve pancakes with warm syrup.

Steps:

• Whisk all of the pancake ingredients together in a large bowl until smooth.
• Put a small knob of butter in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat and cook until melted and foaming. Pour 2 tbsp of the mixture into the pan and use the back of the spoon to shape into a 8-9cm round disc. Depending on the size of your pan you may be able to get 2 or 3 pancakes to cook at the same time. Cook for 2-3 mins on the first side, then flip over and cook for another 1 min on the other.
• Heat oven to its lowest setting. Stack the cooked pancakes on a baking tray and keep them warm in the oven while you cook the rest.
• Softly beat the double cream with the icing sugar using a whisk, then fold in half of the lemon curd. Mix the remaining curd with enough lemon juice to make it a drizzling consistency.
• To serve, stack the pancakes with layers of the whipped cream in between them, drizzle with lemon curd, and scatter with lemon zest to serve.

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Heat a griddle or large nonstick pan or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-low.
• Add the sugar to a large bowl, then finely grate the zest of the lemon directly over the sugar. Using your fingers, gently rub the zest into the sugar. Add the vanilla and whisk to evenly moisten. Add the eggs and whisk until foamy on top, then add the ricotta, buttermilk and butter, and whisk until well blended. Add the flour mixture and gently stir until no traces of flour remain.
• Generously butter the griddle, then drop a scant 1/4 cup batter onto it. Repeat, spacing the rounds at least an inch apart. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops are bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the other sides are golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with more butter and the remaining batter. Serve warm, slathered with butter and blueberry syrup or other toppings if you'd like.
