Let's Get Started
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, egg, milk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and melted butter.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- 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.
- Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup and fresh berries.
