Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups All-purpose flour
3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
2 teaspoons Baking powder
½ teaspoon Baking soda
¼ teaspoon Salt
2 Large eggs
¾ cup Whole milk
1 cup Ricotta cheese (whole milk)
2 teaspoons Lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
3 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted), plus more for cooking
1 ½ cups Mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
Maple syrup, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten, then add the whole milk, ricotta cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and add the melted butter. Gently fold until just combined
  4. Gently fold in most of the berries, saving a few for garnishing
  5. Heat a non-stick griddle over medium-low heat and brush with melted butter
  6. Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brow
  7. Transfer pancakes to a plate and serve with remaining berries and maple syrup

Notes

Do not overmix the batter; lumps are okay.

Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes for fluffier pancakes.

If using frozen berries, add them directly to the batter without thawing.
