1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, egg, milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and melted butter.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
6. Repeat with the remaining batter.
