Description

Delightful soft and fluffy pancakes infused with orange zest and tart cranberries, made creamy with ricotta cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  2. In another bowl, mix the ricotta, eggs, milk, orange juice, and zest until well blended.
  3. Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  4. Fold in the fresh cranberries carefully.
  5. On medium heat, melt a little butter in a non-stick skillet.
  6. Pour about a quarter cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown.
  7. Stack them high and serve with extra cranberries, syrup, or your favorite toppings.

Notes

Rest the batter for 10 minutes before cooking for fluffier pancakes. Use hot skillet for best results.
