Wash and prepare the fresh strawberries by hulling and slicing them. Rinse the blueberries and set both fruits aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and powdered sugar. Mix until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the maple syrup for 2-3 minutes. Keep it warm until ready to serve.
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Toast the crumpets in the skillet for 2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and slightly crisp.
Place two toasted crumpets on each serving plate.
Spread a generous layer of the flavored ricotta mixture over each crumpet.
Top with a mix of sliced strawberries and blueberries, arranging them evenly across the crumpets.
Drizzle warm maple syrup over the fruit-topped crumpets.
Optionally, garnish each plate with a fresh mint leaf for a pop of color and added freshness.
Serve immediately and enjoy the combination of creamy, fruity, and syrupy flavors.
