1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
3 tablespoons sugar |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt |

1 tablespoon milk |
2 extra-large eggs |
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest |

2. Whisk together the sour cream, milk, eggs, vanilla, and lemon zest.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones, mixing only until combined.

5. Ladle the pancake batter (Ina uses a 1/4-cup measure to drop the batter into the pan) into the pan.

7. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, until bubbles appear on top and the underside is nicely browned.
8. Flip the pancakes and then cook for another minute, until browned.
