Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a large measuring cup, whisk together the milk, ricotta, egg, lemon zest, vanilla and butter. Add to the flour mixture and stir just until combined.
  3. Grease a large skillet and heat over medium-low heat. For each pancake, pour 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet. Cook in batches, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Notes

  • These freeze well. Make a double batch of pancakes or store any leftovers in the freezer for several months. Allow them to cool fully then store in a freeze-safe bag. When ready to reheat, pop them in the microwave heating until warmed through.
  • Don’t over mix. You want your pancake batter to still have some lumps in it.
  • Use a cup scoop for perfect pancakes. Pour the pancake batter onto the hot griddle using a 1/4 cup scoop.
