Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

Pillowy Saturday morning pancakes. The ricotta makes them impossibly light — serve with blueberries and maple syrup.

Ingredients

  • 250g ricotta
  • 2 eggs, separated
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 100g plain flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Method

Mix ricotta, egg yolks, and lemon zest. Fold in flour and baking powder. Whisk egg whites to soft peaks and gently fold in — this is what makes them fluffy. Cook in a buttered pan over medium-low heat, 2–3 minutes per side.
