Lemon, Blueberry and Ricotta Pancakes

Ingredients:

  • 300g ricotta cheese
  • 225g plain flour
  • 190ml semi skimmed milk
  • 1tsp baking powder
  • 75g caster sugar
  • 4 medium eggs, separated into yolks and whites
  • 1 tbsp Jif lemon juice
  • 125g pack blueberries
  • Oil for frying

Method:

  1. Mix the egg yolks, ricotta, sugar and milk in a large bowl. Sieve in the flour and baking powder and stir to combine.
  2. Fold in the Jif lemon juice and blueberries.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs whites until they form soft peaks, then gently fold into the ricotta mixture.
  4. Add the oil to a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Pour surplus oil in a bowl and reserve for remaining pancakes.
  5. When the pan is really hot, turn the heat down to medium and pour in a tablespoon of batter. After 1-2 minutes when the pancake has begun to bubble, turn it over and cook on the other side for one minute.
  6. Repeat until all the batter has been used, keeping the cooked pancakes warm. Stack on a plate and dust with icing sugar.
