2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 tablespoons powdered milk
Liquid Ingredients Mixture:

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 tablespoon instant yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions:

Prepare the Syrup:

In a saucepan, combine sugar and water, then add lemon juice. Bring to a gentle boil for 5 minutes over low heat.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

In a glass bowl, sift the flour and incorporate the remaining dry ingredients (cornstarch, baking powder, vanilla, powdered milk).
Prepare the Liquid Ingredients:

In another bowl, combine warm water, instant yeast, sugar, and vegetable oil. Cover and let the yeast activate for 10 minutes.
