Ricotta Hotcake Recipe by Chef Pierrick Boyer
Description
This Ricotta Hotcake Recipe begins by preparing a sugar syrup cooled after boiling water and sugar together. The ricotta cheese is mixed with milk and whisked to reduce lumps, then eggs, flour, sugar, and baking powder are incorporated to make a smooth batter. A nut mixture of toasted almonds, pinenuts, sunflower seeds, and pepitas adds crunch and depth. The batter is cooked with butter and oil in a frypan on medium heat until it sets slightly before finishing in a 200°C oven to bake for about 12 minutes. Once cooked, the hotcake is drizzled with the prepared syrup and topped with a scattering of nuts and berries. A chai-spiced whipped cream adds a lightly scented finish, complementing the richness of the ricotta and the crunch of the nuts for a dessert or breakfast treat.
