Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 eggs (yolks and whites separated)
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • The zest of 1 medium lemon (or less, to taste)
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • ½ cup flour
  • Butter (for frying)

 

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl whisk eggs yolks, lemon zest, sugar, salt, ricotta cheese, and flour. In a separate bowl beat egg whites with an electric mixer until they form slightly stiff peaks.
  2. Fold eggs whites into ricotta/flour mixture until well blended.
  3.  Add a little bit of butter to a skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Spoon batter into the pan to form a pancake of the desired size you want.
  4. Cook for 1 minute or until the top starts to bubble and/or the bottom is golden brown, flip the pancake onto its other side and cook until the pancake is cooked thoroughly throughout (About 1- 1 1/2 minutes).
  5.  Repeat until the batter is gone.
