1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 cups milk
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 -2 teaspoon vegetable oil
maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

Whisk the lemon juice and milk together in a medium bowl or large measuring cup; set aside to thicken.
Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl to combine.
Whisk the egg and melted butter into the milk until combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients in the bowl; pour in the milk mixture and whisk very gently until just combined--a few lumps should remain; do not overmix.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot, 3-5 minutes; add 1 tsp oil and brush to coat the skillet bottom evenly.
Pour 1/4 cup batter onto 3 spots on skillet.
Cook the pancakes until large bubbles begin to appear, 1 1/2-2 minutes.
Using a thin, wide spatula, flip the pancakes and cook until golden brown on the second side, 1 1/2-2 minutes longer.
Serve immediately.
Repeat with the remaining batter, using remaining vegetable oil only if necessary.
