- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- ⅔ cup whole milk at room temperature
- ⅓ cup sour cream at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups Bisquick sifted (optional for lighter pancakes)

Step 1: Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, sour cream, melted butter, and vanilla extract. It’s crucial that these ingredients are at room temperature. The warmth allows them to blend better, resulting in a lighter batter. Combine them until the mixture is smooth.
Step 2: Add the Dry Ingredients
In another bowl, mix the Bisquick, dark brown sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and lemon zest. Make sure these dry ingredients are well combined. This unity brings out flavors while preventing any clumps.
Step 3: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Step 6: Flip and Finish Cooking
Here are some crucial tips to enhance your pancake experience:
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Always start with room temperature ingredients. They combine better and create fluffier pancakes.
- Don’t Overmix: Once combined, stop mixing. This keeps the pancakes light and fluffy.
- Heat Control: Too high a heat will burn the pancakes. Keep it medium for even cooking.
- Serve Fresh: Pancakes are best served immediately. If you need to stack them, keep them warm in a low oven.
- Experiment: Feel free to try different add-ins. Chocolate chips or nuts can offer great flavors!
