Whether youβre hosting a weekend brunch or treating yourself to a cozy morning, these homemade blueberry ricotta pancakes will quickly become a favorite. Recipe makes 4 servings.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs until well combined. Then mix in the ricotta cheese, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix, as overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter to coat the surface.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until small bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, powdered sugar, or additional fresh blueberries.
