The Best Ricotta Pancakes
Description
The Best Ricotta Pancakes feature ricotta cheese as a key ingredient mixed with milk, eggs, vanilla, sugar, and leavening agents to create a batter that cooks into tender, fluffy pancakes. The ricotta adds moisture and a slightly creamy texture that sets these apart from traditional pancakes. Cooking them in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat allows for golden surfaces and a soft crumb inside. Their delicate sweetness makes them versatile for serving with jams, syrups, or fresh fruit at breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 egg large
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- neutral cooking oil for cooking, generic cooking oil
Instructions
- Combine ricotta cheese, milk, eggs, vanilla extract and sugar. Stir until well combined.
- In a separate bowl combine flour with baking powder. Add flour mixture to the ricotta mixture, and mix just until combined.
- Lightly coat a skillet with oil and preheat over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into the hot skillet. Fry pancakes until bubbles appear on top and both sides are golden brown, flipping once.
- Serve with your favorite toppings while they are still hot.
