Breakfast Recipes
Lemon in the morning: pancakes, muffins, scones, and other bright starts to the day. Citrus wakes up sweet batters and pairs well with ricotta, berries, and honey.
Most of these can be prepped the night before, so morning is mostly cooking or reheating.

Questions about breakfast recipes
Can I make lemon breakfast bakes ahead?
Yes. Muffins and scones freeze well once cooled, and batters for pancakes can often be mixed the night before.
Does lemon juice affect pancake texture?
Acid reacts with baking soda to give lift, which is why it works well in pancakes. Follow the recipe amounts, since too much can make batters heavy.
What goes well with lemon at breakfast?
Ricotta, blueberries, honey, and yogurt are all natural partners.
