Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, anyone?
I am not a huge fan of ricotta in my lasagna, but I love it in my pancakes because it makes them so darn LIGHT! These are super simple to whip up and they’ll disappear in no time flat. Enjoy! xo
Shopping List
1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 eggs
¼ cup sugar
1 cup milk
½ cup ricotta cheese (I used a whole milk ricotta)
3 tablespoons lemon zest
3 tablespoons lemon juice
Preheat pancake griddle to 350 degrees or stove top griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with Pam.
In one mixing bowl, whisk your flour and baking powder together. Set aside. In a second bowl, beat with an electric mixer, your eggs and sugar for a minute. Next, beat in your milk and ricotta followed by your zest and lemon juice. Slowly beat your flour mixture into this mixture and combine (but do not over mix).

Will the batter be good if you make the night before?
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! I’ve done that. Just cover it with Saran Wrap and you’ll be ready to go the next morning!

I’ve got some ricotta left from my most recent lasagna recipe! What a great way to use it up!

Dying to know if you have hopped on the instant pot bandwagon yet? It’s a GAME CHANGER!!
Mix and Match Mama says
I have not. After reading all of the comments, I felt like the instant pot was more for people who want to make dinner at 3:00 PM quickly…where I’m a slow cooker girl and would rather put it in early in the morning.

Thanks for the recipe! I had a version of these during a trip to Vancouver; they added blueberries to theirs. Best pancakes I ever had.

I cannot thank you enough for this yummy recipe Shay! My 14 year old has been home sick with this yucky flu virus that is going around. This morning I made her these pancakes and topped them with raspberries, blueberries and powdered sugar. They were the greatest breakfast EVER and really rocked her world. Thank you for giving us this joy today.
