Ingredients
Ricotta Pancakes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup ricotta
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons melted butter
1/4 cup strawberry coulis
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Strawberry Coulis
16 ounces frozen strawberries, thawed
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
To Make the Pancakes
In a small bowl, combine together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together milk, ricotta, egg, and vanilla until combined. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, and half the melted butter to the milk mixture and whisk until combined (curdling is normal).
Pour milk mixture into flour mixture and whisk until slightly lumpy.
Add the remaining butter to a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the buttered skillet and cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the bottom is golden brown (2-3 minutes). Flip and cook opposite side until golden brown (about 2 minutes). Repeat with remaining batter.
Serve warm with powdered sugar and strawberry coulis.
To Make the Coulis
Combine all ingredients in a pot over medium high heat, stirring frequently.
Once the mixture begins to boil, reduce heat low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool slightly.
Blend until smooth. Strain in a fine sieve and cool before serving.
