Ricotta-Lemon Pancakes
12 ingredients
Serves 4.
openrecipes
Light and delicate, these pancakes are moist, rich and lemony on the inside and have a crisp, browned exterior. The texture comes from using lightly beaten egg whites instead of butter, and the calories are reduced by using part-skim ricotta cheese. When you open the ricotta cheese container, pour off any liquid sitting on the top. If desired, serve the pancakes with maple syrup in place of the confectioners’ sugar and fresh berries.
