Ricotta Pancakes

They say that whenever you’re feeling blue you should serve yourself a small treat. Something to make you feel better. I’m sick and couch attached for almost a week now and I miss my walks and social life. But ricotta pancakes made me feel quite good about myself. It tasted like a small cloud in your mouth, it’s delicate and juicy. Just perfect. I still can’t wait to go outside, but at least I had something delicious to eat. 

You will need (for about 8):

• 1 cup ricotta cheese
• ¾ cup flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 ½ tablespoons sugar
• pinch salt
• ¾ cup milk
• 3 eggs, divided
• ½ teaspoon vanilla

In one bowl mix dry ingredients, in another the wet ones. Beat the egg whites untill stiff. Combine ingrediens from both bowls and whisk in a small amount of the egg whites. Blend it gantly and add the rest of it. 

The only thing left will be to fry your little clouds. Heat a frying pan (medium heat), melt some butter and fry one side for about 3-4 minutes, then flip on the other one.

I had mine with bluberries, but you can serve it with bananas or whatever fruits you have at home. Some people like it simply with a bit of butter on a top.

Enjoy, Marta
