📝 Preparation Steps
1
Mix the dry ingredients. Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and fine sea salt in a large mixing bowl until evenly combined.
2
Mix the wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk together the ricotta, buttermilk, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest, vanilla extract, and melted butter until mostly smooth. A few small lumps of ricotta are perfectly fine.
(240g) whole milk ricotta cheese1 cuplarge eggs2vanilla extract1 teaspoonmelted butter (plus more for the pan)2 tablespoons
3
Combine the batter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, since the batter should stay thick and slightly lumpy. Let the batter rest for 5 to ⏱️ 10 minutes while you heat the skillet, which will help give the pancakes an extra fluffy texture.
4
Cook the pancakes. Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small pat of butter and swirl to lightly coat the surface. Scoop about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet, gently spreading slightly if needed. Cook for 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes, until bubbles begin to form on top and the bottoms are golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes until the pancakes are cooked through and lightly golden on both sides. Adjust the heat as needed so the pancakes cook evenly without browning too quickly.
