Instructions
Creating Blueberry Lemon Ricotta Pancakes is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the ricotta, milk, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix—small lumps are okay.
4. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, being careful not to break them.
5. Preheat Griddle: Heat a non-stick griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil to coat the surface.
6. Cook Pancakes: Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
7. Flip Pancakes: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Keep Warm: Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a low oven while you cook the remaining batter.
9. Serve: Once all pancakes are cooked, serve warm with maple syrup and additional blueberries on top, if desired.
