Ricotta Parmesan Pancakes Recipes

RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Combine 32 oz ricotta cheese with 1 egg and mix until the egg is well incorporated (if using vanilla add 1 tsp vanilla with the egg); add 1/2-3/4 cup sugar and mix again; add 1½ cups flour and 1/2 tsp baking powder and with a minimal amount of mixing bring everything together into a smooth mass.
• Using a tablespoon or a large ice cream scoop, scoop the mixture then drop it into the flour. Coat the ball in flour, then gently shape into a flat patty about 1/2 inch thick. You can shape them all and then fry the ricotta pancakes, or shape enough to fill the pan and while they're frying continue shaping the rest.
• To fry the pancakes add about 1 tablespoon of oil to a skillet and heat over low-medium heat. Add ricotta pancakes in, cover with a lid and fry for about 2-3 minutes per side or until well browned on both sides.

THE BEST RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat a griddle to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) or place a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
• Stir ricotta cheese, milk, and egg yolks together in a bowl until combined.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; stir in ricotta mixture.
• Whisk egg whites in a bowl until frothy; fold into ricotta mixture.
• Oil preheated griddle with about 1 teaspoon canola oil; pour 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle for each pancake. Cook until evenly golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes; turn and cook until evenly golden on other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter, oiling griddle between batches.

RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk briefly to combine.
• In a separate mixing bowl, add eggs, milk, ricotta and vanilla. Whisk for 30 seconds to break up the egg yolks and combine the wet ingredients.
• Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Batter should be thick and smooth.
• Place a medium-sized frying pan on low-medium heat. Add a teaspoon of butter and smear it around to cover the base of the frying pan. Add approximately 3 tablespoons of pancake batter to the middle of the pan.
• Fry pancake until golden. Flip and cook on the other side until lightly golden. Repeat with the remaining pancake batter, smearing the pan with butter after every pancake. Serve warm with fresh blueberries and maple syrup.

AMARANTH, RICOTTA AND GREENS PANCAKES

Steps:

• Cook the amaranth. Combine with the stock and salt to taste in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes, until all of the liquid has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let sit for 15 minutes or longer without disturbing.
• Steam the greens above 1 inch of boiling water for about 1 to 2 minutes, just until wilted. Remove from the heat, allow to cool and squeeze out excess water. Chop fine. You should have 1 cup chopped blanched chard.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the greens, season with salt and pepper, stir together until well coated with oil, and remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, beat together the ricotta, eggs, milk and Parmesan. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt and whisk into the ricotta mixture. Stir in the greens, amaranth and pepper.
• Heat a griddle or a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil or butter, enough to coat the bottom, and drop the batter in by the heaped tablespoon (or use a small ladle or a 1/4-cup measuring cup, filling it only partway). The pancakes should be 2 1/2 to 3 inches in diameter. Cook for about 3 minutes, until lightly browned and risen, and turn over. Cook for another 3 minutes, until brown on the other side. The pancakes will be moist in the middle, but there should not be a raw flour taste. Remove from the heat and serve, or cool on a rack and heat later in a medium-low oven. Serve with a dollop of tomato sauce.

RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Stir 1/3 cup of water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Stir in the honey. Set aside and keep the honey syrup warm.
• Using a rubber spatula, stir the remaining 1 2/3 cups of water and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the pancake mix and stir just until moistened but still lumpy. Stir in the ricotta into the pancake mixture, then stir gently to incorporate the ricotta but maintain a lumpy batter. Fold in the blueberries.
• Heat a griddle over medium heat. Brush with the melted butter. Working in batches, spoon 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve with the honey syrup.

• Heat vegetable oil in large nonstick skillet or on griddle over low heat. Drop batter by rounded tablespoons into skillet to make small pancakes.
• Cook until underside is golden, about 5 minutes; turn and cook second side about 3 minutes.
• Keep warm on covered plate or serve.

VALENCIA ORANGE RICOTTA PANCAKES

Steps:

• Grate 1 teaspoon zest from orange. Remove and discard the remaining peel, and cut orange into wheels. Set zest and orange wheels aside.
• Whisk ricotta cheese, eggs, and orange zest together in a medium bowl. Add flour, sugar, and baking powder; whisk to combine.
• Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat for 1 minute. Drop about 1/4 of the batter into the hot skillet and cook until bubbly, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, another 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter to make 3 more pancakes.
• Serve with orange wheels and maple syrup.
