Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 1/2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- lemon zest, of 1/2 lemon
- 3 each egg yolk
- 1 1/3 cups buttermilk
- 3/4 cup ricotta cheese
- 5 each egg whites
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter
- 3/8 cup Jam, or preserves (any flavor)
- confectioner's sugar
Directions
- Whisk together in a bowl, the flour, baking soda, baking powder, granulated sugar, salt and lemon zest.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks lightly. In this same bowl whisk in the buttermilk and ricotta. Whisk this egg yolk mixture into the flour mixture until well combined; mixture will be lumpy. Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer , on high speed, beat the egg whites until stiff, but not dry peak form - about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir the egg whites into the batter in two parts.
- Heat pan on medium heat. Put a 1/4 teaspoon butter into each well. When butter bubbles, pour 1 tablespoon batter into each well. Place 1/2 teaspoon of your preserves or jam into the center of the batter and then top with another 1 tablespoon batter. Cook until the bottoms are golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes. Use 2 skewers to flip the pancakes over and cook an additional 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar and serve warm.
