Frank's Fluffy Lemon Cardamon Pancakes (Eggless)

Lemon Cardamon Pancakes

Pancakes are my little friend Frank's favorite things to eat, so I named this recipe after him. He is not the only one; I love pancakes for breakfast lunch or dinner. They are so fluffy, light with a hint of sweetness and they take so little time to make. 

Pancakes usually contain eggs which help add lightness and richness, which usually mean that when I am fasting, I can't make the normal pancakes with eggs. Pancakes without eggs usually are pretty dense. This one though is light and fluffy due to added help from some rising agents. The lemon and cardamon also add a wonderful fruity tartness and spice which makes this even more delicious.
