Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder.

In a large bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar, add melted butter, lemon extract and lemon zest, beat until smooth. Add the flour mixture and beat until smooth

Preheat your pizzelle baker. Lightly spray the pizzelle grids with non-stick spray or lightly brush with vegetable oil.

I cook these on the 3.5 heat setting until there is no more steam.
