Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups of flour, 3 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup of ricotta cheese, 1 cup of milk, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough pancakes.
- Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of fresh blueberries into the batter.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm with maple syrup and extra blueberries, if desired. Enjoy!
