Ricotta Pancakes

Looking for something different for your weekend breakfast? Why not try an old Italian recipe. These are a little bit of work but they are definitely worth the trouble.

Ricotta Pancakes

4 eggs
2 cups ricotta cheese
2/3 cup sour cream
1 1/3 cups flour
2 T. baking powder
1 t. salt
1 t. baking soda
1 ½ cups milk

Separate eggs.

Beat egg yolks, cheese and sour cream until smooth. Set aside.

Combine flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Add to egg mixture and stir until batter is smooth.

Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold whites into batter.

Lightly brush a large skillet with butter and heat skillet. Pour batter in small amounts onto skillet, forming small pancakes. Cook for 5-8 minutes or until pancakes are lightly browned.

Serve dusted with confectioner’s sugar, if desired.
