Ingredients

Scale

Ricotta Pancakes Ingredients

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for slight sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Butter or oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, eggs, and milk. Whisk until smooth and well blended. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix to keep pancakes light and fluffy.
  2. Preheat the skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil to prevent sticking and promote even browning.
  3. Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown and cooked through, about 1-2 minutes more.
  4. Serve warm: Remove from skillet and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or powdered sugar.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense pancakes.
  • Adjust the milk quantity slightly if batter is too thick or thin.
  • Use fresh ricotta for best flavor and texture.
  • Keep cooked pancakes warm in a low oven (200°F) while cooking the rest.
  • Optional additions like vanilla extract or lemon zest can enhance flavor.
