Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until thoroughly mixed.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, ricotta cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.

  4. 4

    Cook the Pancakes

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface (about 2-3 minutes), then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Strawberry Reduction Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook Strawberries

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the sliced strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Stir occasionally and cook until the strawberries are softened and the mixture thickens slightly (about 10-15 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Pancakes

    Stack pancakes on a plate. Drizzle with the strawberry reduction, and top with a sprinkle of powdered sugar and a dash of lemon zest. Serve with maple syrup on the side.
