Ingredients:
· 2 cups all-purpose flour
· ¼ cup granulated sugar
· 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
· ¾ baking powder
· 1 teaspoon salt
· 2 large eggs
· 1 ½ cups milk
· 1 cup ricotta cheese (full fat if you have it, others will work as well)
· 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
· ¼ cup lemon juice (fresh)
· 3 teaspoons lemon zest
· Maple syrup, butter, and fresh blueberries for serving
Directions:
1. In a large bowl add the 2 cups flour, ¼ cup sugar, 1 ½ tsp baking soda, ¾ tsp baking powder, and 1 tsp salt—whisk to combine.
2. In a separate bowl add the 2 eggs and lightly beat them. Add in the 1 ½ cups milk, 1 cup ricotta cheese, and 1 ½ tsp vanilla—beat until well combined.
3. Stir the wet mixture into the dry—stir until everything is combined.
4. Now fold in the ¼ cup lemon juice and 3 tsp lemon zest—stir until well combined.
5. Now heat griddle or pan and lightly grease with cooking spay or butter (I prefer cooking spray, butter burns), using a 1/3 measuring cup, scoop the batter onto the griddle-- let cook for about 3 minutes or until bubbles form on top then flip. Cook on the second side for about 2-3 minutes. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
6. Finally add a slice of butter on top drizzle with syrup and Enjoy!
