Gently rub the zest into the sugar with your fingers. + Add the vanilla to the sugar/zest and mix. + Add the eggs and whisk well (until foamy). + Melt the butter. I always do it on the skillet so that effectively butters it before the first batch, but feel free to melt the butter separately too. + Add the ricotta, milk, lemon juice, and butter to the egg/sugar mixture. Whisk well. + Add the flour and gently whisk. + Cook the pancakes. + +.. rubric:: References + +Recipe from New York Times (https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1022931-lemon-ricotta-pancakes). + +.. note:: + + I usually wait until I've made a recipe several times to add it to this recipe book, but these were so good the first time I made them that both Carlo and I agreed they should be in here. + So I haven't experimented too much with this recipe yet. The main thing I did was add regular milk and lemon juice instead of buttermilk (which is the variation I wrote here). I'm sure buttermilk would work too, but we didn't have any, and I liked the idea of adding some lemon juice. + I still want to see if I can replace the ricotta with something I more commonly have at home, so I will update this recipe as I experiment if I find variations I like better. + +.. sectionauthor:: Tori
