Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
  2. In another bowl, mix ricotta, milk, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla.
  3. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  4. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and lightly grease it.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup batter for each pancake onto the pan.
  6. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
  7. Serve warm with maple syrup or fresh berries.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter—it should be slightly lumpy.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking for fluffier pancakes.
  • Use fresh lemon zest for the best flavor.
