Instructions

Place a flat, non-stick frying pan on the stove and turn the heat to medium low to preheat 5 minutes before you are ready to cook the pancakes.
To a medium-size bowl, add the milk and lemon juice. Set aside to allow the milk to curdle to make buttermilk.
To curdled milk, add the rest of the ingredients.
Mix all ingredients together gently until incorporated.
Check the heat of the frying pan by dripping a little water on it. If the water sputters for a couple of seconds and then sizzles away, the pan is hot enough.
Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour batter onto the pan in your desired amounts for the size pancakes you want to make.
Allow each pancake to cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges are dry and bubbles have formed on top, then flip.
Once flipped, cook on the opposite side for another minute until the bottom is golden brown.
Once cooked, remove pancakes from the pan and serve. Allow leftovers to cool on a plate for 15 minutes and then store in an airtight container on the counter for up to three days or in the fridge for up to one week.

Notes

If your pancakes are burning, make sure you are not leaving them too long. If you are only cooking them for a minute on each side and they are still burning, your stove is too hot. Turn it down slightly (a small adjustment can make a big difference).
If your pancakes are taking a long time to cook, your stove may be too low or it may not have fully heated up yet. Make sure to preheat your pan for a few minutes to ensure it has fully and evenly heated before cooking the first pancakes. If it has been preheated and the pancakes are still taking a long time to cook, turn the heat up just a little bit.
