Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 1/2 cup milk whole
- 2 egg
- 1/4 cup lemon juice fresh if possible
- lemon zest of two
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- powdered sugar for topping
- maple syrup
- Whipped Cream
- Blueberry
- lemon
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- In a medium bowl, mix ricotta, milk, eggs, lemon juice, zest, and almond extract.
- Combine the dry and wet ingredients. Stir to combine, but don't over-mix. There should still be some lumps and air bubbles.
- Heat a pan or griddle to medium heat and spray with cooking spray. Pour 1/3 cup of batter onto the griddle. Once the sides start to dry and the top is bubbling, flip the pancake using a large spatula. Cook until both sides are golden brown and the middle is cooked. Serve with your favorite pancake toppings.
