Instructions

1

Make the Batter

In a bowl, combine pancake mix, milk, lemon zest, and two teaspoons of lemon juice. Stir until just combined leaving a few lumps. Gently fold in the blueberries being careful not to crush them.

2

Prepare the Skillet

Melt butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat, swirling to coat the entire bottom and slightly up the sides. The butter should foam and just begin to turn golden before adding the batter.

3

Cook the Cake

Pour the batter into the skillet, spread gently, and cover with a lid. Cook on medium-low for 7 to 8 minutes until the top is set, the edges are golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
