  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL)Salt
  • 1 cup (250 mL)PC® Ricotta Whey Cheese

How to make

  • Step 1In large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Step 2In blender, add ricotta, milk, egg, sugar, 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the butter, lemon juice and vanilla; blend until smooth. Pour over flour mixture; stir until just combined. Fold in blueberries and lemon rind (batter will be thick).
  • Step 3Heat large frying pan over medium heat; add 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the butter. Using 1/4 cup (50 mL) dry measuring cup, spoon batter into pan, smoothing and pressing top until 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick; do not let pancakes touch. Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown around edges of pancake bottoms. Using spatula, flip pancakes, pressing lightly until 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick. Cook for another 3 to 4 minutes or until fluffy and cooked through. Transfer to platter and repeat with remaining batter, adding remaining butter after six pancakes are cooked. Makes 12 pancakes.
