Last night in our cooking class we made poppy seed pancakes with lemon curd. It changed Hannah’s life.
She LOVES lemon curd and had no idea that you could make it in the microwave in two minutes. Pretty sure she’ll be making this every week.
My friend Vic is the person I got the microwave lemon curd from. You can follow her on Instagram here. She’s a fellow WW from New Zealand and has kept off 100 pounds for years. She makes amazing food!
The pancakes we used in class last night were my cottage cheese pancakes, but as soon as Hannah tasted the lemon curd, she looked at me and said “we need to make poppy seed pancakes!” So here they are Hannah, I hope you enjoy them!
Vic's Lemon Curd
My friend Vic changed my life when she posted a microwave lemon curd that's literally ready in two minutes. So delicious! Feel free to add more non calorie sweetener to make it sweeter, but I love the pop of citrus as the recipe is written.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup lemon juice (I used bottled but you can use fresh)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup Truvia
Instructions
- Whisk everything together for a good minute to make sure the eggs are mixed well.
- Microwave for 30 second intervals, four times, stirring after each 30 second interval.
- That's it!
Notes
On #teampurple one serving is one point, on #teamblue and #teamgreen it's 3 points.

Poppy Seed Pancakes
These poppy seed pancakes are so fluffy! Yes, there is cottage cheese in this recipe, but promise you won't taste it!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup self-rising flour (you can use regular flour)
- 1/2 cup oats (I used quick)
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup gluten free flour (I used Bob's Redmill 1 to 1 gluten free flour)
- 1 tablespoon Truvia
- pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Mix the above together. I put my quick oats in my coffee grinder to make a powder, but you can skip that step if you want.
- Let the batter sit for 30 minutes to let the baking powder do it's magic.
- Using a 1/3 measure, cook each pancake 2-3 minutes a side.
- Makes 4 large pancakes.
- Eating 2 is filling!

Can you meal prep pancakes?
Yes! The pancakes can be made ahead of time and will keep for several days in the fridge. You can also freeze them on a cookie sheet for 30 minutes, then toss them in a ziplock bag. Simply go from freezer to toaster to reheat – you may have to run it a couple cycles but they will taste as if you just made them.
Be sure to tag me on Instagram (@mybizzykitchen) if you make this dish! ❤️
What a great start to the day. The brightness of the lemon works so well with blueberry, can’t go wrong there.
Thanks Virginia!!
Where do the points come from in the lemon curd? TIA!

Good Morning! When I put the recipe in the WW recipe builder, when I added 1/2 cup lemon juice, that came to one point. I seriously wouldn’t count it though!
