Elevate your breakfast game with Fluffy Ricotta Pancakes—an irresistible blend of creamy ricotta, delicate vanilla notes, and a pillowy-soft texture that melts in your mouth. Perfectly balanced with just the right hint of sweetness, these pancakes achieve their signature fluffiness thanks to the combination of whipped wet ingredients and gently folded dry ingredients. Whether topped with maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream, they’re a luxurious yet easy-to-make treat ready in just 25 minutes. Ideal for brunch gatherings or indulgent mornings, this recipe is a must-try for anyone seeking pancake bliss.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-combined.
In a separate large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter.
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the skillet, leaving some space between each pancake.
Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm. Repeat with remaining batter, regreasing the skillet as needed.
Serve pancakes immediately with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream.
