Since Sunday is Father's Day and my husband LOVES pancakes, that's what I'll be serving up all weekend long!
This morning I made lemon cornmeal pancakes with strawberry sauce from my new favorite site: eatliverun.com. The lemon olive oil cake from yesterday's post hails from the same site and what better way to continue the lemon tradition than with pancakes?!
I combined the dry ingredients last night so this morning all I had to do was whisk the eggs, buttermilk, oil and applesauce, and zest the lemon. Since I knew I'd be frying these babies up in butter, I opted for 1 T oil and 1 T applesauce. These pancakes are light and delicate with a sandy texture from the cornmeal.
Next time I might make a blueberry sauce to compliment these lemon cornmeal pancakes and maybe even add some toasted pecans. Overall, they were absolutely delicious and I will definitely be making them again soon!

I had mine with the sauce only |

FYI: My pancakes took 3-5 minutes per side and my strawberry sauce took 25-30 minutes to soften. I used a 1/4 measuring cup to ladle my pancakes into the pan and made 12 pancakes total, which came to 3 (4 pancakes each) servings in our house.
