Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Low-sodium ricotta cheese
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 as needed Cooking spray or unsalted butter for griddle
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
Step 2
In another bowl, mix the low-sodium ricotta cheese, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 3
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. If the batter seems too thick, add a bit more milk until you get a smooth consistency.
Step 4
Fold in the lemon zest for a fresh, light flavor.
Step 5
Preheat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray or brush with unsalted butter.
Step 6
Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the griddle. Cook until bubbles start to form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Flip the pancakes and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 2 more minutes.
Step 8
Serve warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
