Baked Lemon Pancake Recipe for Breakfast, Brunch or Dessert

Any lemon recipe is going to get my attention. From lemon pie to lemon bars to lemon chicken to lemon sauces, it's a good assumption that I will love it. When my kids were little, I made them an apple Dutch baby pancake for breakfast often. When I saw this puffy baked pancake recipe, which is basically a lemon Dutch baby, I had to try it for breakfast. So glad I did!

This lemon baked pancake recipe is simple to prepare and bakes up in the oven while you brew a cup of tea or make a mean pot of coffee. All you need to make this pancake recipe is flour, butter, salt, granulated sugar, milk, vanilla, eggs, powdered sugar for the top and fresh blueberries for serving.

Serve this refreshing lemon pancake for breakfast or brunch. The fluffy pancake could also be a light dessert after dinner.

Recipe Notes

  • Be sure to use the right size pan. If it's too large it won't puff up.
  • Use a mesh strainer to dust the powdered sugar over the baked pancake.
  • Don't like blueberries? Serve the pancake as is or with your favorite fresh fruit.
  • Fresh is best, so squeeze your own lemon juice.
  • For more lemon flavor, stir some finely grated lemon zest into the batter.

Here's how to make it: 

  1. Put 1 tablespoon of the butter into a 9-inch cast iron skillet or 8-inch round cake pan. 
  2. Put it into the oven while it preheats to 425 degrees F. When the butter is melted, remove the pan from the oven. 
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and sugar. In another mixing bowl, stir together the milk, vanilla extract and eggs until combined. 
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until smooth. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and stir into the batter. 
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes or until puffed up and golden brown. 
  6. Take the pancake out of the oven and drizzle with the lemon juice. Dust with powdered sugar. Serve with fresh blueberries on top.
