How to Make Ricotta Cheese Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine the ricotta cheese, egg yolks, sugar, flour, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
  2. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the egg whites into the ricotta mixture in two additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve the pancakes immediately. Top with your favorite fruits and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey (optional).
