How to Make Bld's Blueberry Ricotta Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks and 1 cup ricotta cheese until no large lumps remain, but maintain some texture.
  2. Whisk in 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Then, whisk in 1/2 cup milk.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a clean bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form (about 4 minutes).
  6. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter until just combined.
  7. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake.
  8. Top each pancake with 10-12 fresh blueberries.
  9. Cook for approximately 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  10. Serve immediately with your favorite maple syrup (homemade blueberry syrup recommended!)
