Recipe type: Breakfast
Cuisine: Mediterranean
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 eggs, separated
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • 1½ cups cake flour
  • 1 Tbs. baking powder
  • ¼ tsp. salt
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the ricotta, milk, egg yolks, sugar, lemon zest and juice until smooth. Sift together the flour, baking powder and ⅛ tsp. of the salt over the ricotta mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until just combined.
  2. In another large bowl, using a whisk beat the egg whites until frothy. Add the remaining ⅛ tsp. salt and continue beating until soft peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, fold one-third of the egg whites into the ricotta mixture, then gently fold in the remaining whites.
  3. Preheat a griddle over medium heat. Spray the griddle with nonstick cooking spray. Ladle ⅓ cup batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top and the pancakes are golden underneath, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for 1 minute more. Transfer to a warmed plate. Repeat with the remaining batter. Makes 12 to 14 pancakes.
