FLUFFY LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• For the blueberry sauce: Place the blueberries in a small saucepan. Add 1/2 cup water, then stir in the honey. Heat over medium-high heat until the mixture comes to a low boil and the blueberries just start to break apart. Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl, then add the slurry to the saucepan and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Turn the heat down and simmer on low heat until the sauce is nicely thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice. Set aside until ready to serve. (See Cook's Note.)
• For the pancakes: Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the ricotta, milk, vanilla, eggs and lemon zest and juice in a separate medium bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined.
• Preheat the oven to 175 degrees F.
• Heat about a tablespoon each vegetable oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet (I prefer cast-iron) over medium heat. When the butter is foamy, reduce the heat to medium-low and ladle a heaping 1/4 cup pancake batter into the skillet. Repeat to make 2 more pancakes. Cook until bubbles start to form in the batter and the pancakes are golden underneath, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook the other sides until golden, another 3 minutes. Place the finished pancakes on a sheet tray and hold the oven while you finish cooking the remaining batter, adding more oil and butter as necessary. Serve warm with the blueberry sauce.

LEMON BLUEBERRY RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Put the flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
• Combine the buttermilk, oil, vanilla and eggs in another bowl and whisk. Add the ricotta, granulated sugar and lemon zest and gently stir with the whisk until evenly combined.
• Add the flour mixture to the bowl with the buttermilk mixture. Fold the ingredients together until evenly combined with a few small lumps remaining in the batter. Do not overmix the batter.
• Heat 1/4 teaspoon of vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan. Using a ladle, pour the batter onto the pan, forming one pancake that is 3 to 4 inches in diameter; add a second pancake. Drop 4 to 5 blueberries onto each pancake and press lightly using your fingers. Cook until the edges begin to dry and puff up and little air bubbles begin to appear over the top surface of the pancakes, about 2 1/2 minutes. Flip the pancakes over and continue to cook for another minute or so until done. Continue with the remaining batter.
• Serve with extra blueberries and maple syrup. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Sift together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk together milk and egg in a small bowl. Add milk and egg mixture to flour mixture, whisking until blended. Stir in melted butter and lemon zest.
• Lightly oil a griddle and heat over medium-high heat. Fill a 1/4-cup measure with batter and pour onto the hot griddles. Drop a few blueberries on top and cover them with a little batter. Cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

BLUEBERRY LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Heat up a cast-iron griddle or pan on medium heat before you begin. Make sure it gets nice and hot before you start cooking the pancakes.
• Beat together the egg, milk, ricotta cheese, melted butter, lemon zest , and vanilla in a large measuring cup.
• Whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
• Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry mixture. The dough will be a little lumpy. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. It will puff up. If it is too thick, add a little more milk.
• Add a generous amount of butter to the griddle, then lower the heat to a medium-low temperature. Spoon large circles of batter onto the griddle. Cook on the griddle for a few minutes.
• Add blueberries to each pancake and flip, cooking a few more minutes on the other side. (A good rule of thumb is to wait until the bubbles stop popping and reforming on the raw side of the dough before flipping.) Keep the pancakes warm in a 200 F oven while cooking the remaining cakes.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, powdered sugar, and 1 tablespoon milk in a small bowl. If it is too thin, add a little more powdered sugar. If it is too thick, add a little more milk. Heat slightly if desired.
• Drizzle the syrup over the pancakes and serve warm.
• Enjoy.

FLUFFY AND DECADENT BLUEBERRY-RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the milk, sugar and vanilla until well combined. Add the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk until just combined--do not overmix; small flour lumps are okay. Gently fold in the ricotta cheese until just barely combined. Again, some ricotta clumps are okay.
• In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar (if using) at medium speed until frothy. Then switch to high speed and beat until soft peaks form, 4 to 6 minutes. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter until just combined.
• Heat a griddle over medium heat and give it a 3-second spray with nonstick spray to coat. Dip a 2-ounce (56-g) ladle into the batter and ladle onto the griddle. Be sure to leave enough space between the pancakes to get your spatula in there to flip. Cook over medium heat until the bottoms are golden brown and the pancakes are just beginning to set, 1 to 2 minutes. Sprinkle each pancake with a few blueberries, pressing them in gently. Flip over and continue to cook until golden on the second side. Remove from the heat and repeat with the remaining batter. Serve with maple syrup and butter.

LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Heat a griddle or large nonstick pan or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-low.
• Add the sugar to a large bowl, then finely grate the zest of the lemon directly over the sugar. Using your fingers, gently rub the zest into the sugar. Add the vanilla and whisk to evenly moisten. Add the eggs and whisk until foamy on top, then add the ricotta, buttermilk and butter, and whisk until well blended. Add the flour mixture and gently stir until no traces of flour remain.
• Generously butter the griddle, then drop a scant 1/4 cup batter onto it. Repeat, spacing the rounds at least an inch apart. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown and the tops are bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the other sides are golden brown, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with more butter and the remaining batter. Serve warm, slathered with butter and blueberry syrup or other toppings if you'd like.
