Delicious ricotta cheese pancakes. Great for a weekend treat. Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups all purpose flour |
2 tbsp. granulated sugar |
1/2 tsp. salt |
1/2 tsp. baking soda |
1 tsp. baking powder |
2 large eggs, separated |
2 tbsp. vegetable oil |
1/2 cup ricotta cheese |
1-1/4 cups buttermilk |
1/4 cup orange juice |
1 tsp. vanilla extract |
2 cups strawberries, cut in quarters or berry or your choice |
Directions:
1. Mix together flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, baking powder and set aside.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the egg yolks, oil, buttermilk, ricotta cheese, orange juice and vanilla extract.
3. Whisk together until smooth.
4. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the liquid mixture.
5. Mix together until ingredients are just blended.
6. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until just barely stiff.
7. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter until blended.
8. Allow to sit for about 15 minutes.
9. Pour the batter into a heated, oiled frying pan and fry until you see bubbles forming on the top.
10. Flip the pancakes over and fry until lightly golden in color.
11. Place a dollop of butter on plated pancakes with a sprinkle of strawberries.
12. Serve with warm maple syrup.
13. Note: I also like to serve these pancakes with slices of apples or bananas that have been sauted in butter and 1-1/2 tsp. cinnamon.
