Ingredients
For the Simmered Raspberries:
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
- Splash of water
For the Pancakes:
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup ricotta
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled
Instructions
-
To make the simmered raspberries: add the raspberries, sugar, vanilla extract, salt and a splash of water to a skillet. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Keep under very low heat while you make the pancakes.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the ricotta, whole milk, egg, vanilla extract and melted butter. In one batch, add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined.
-
Place a medium skillet over medium heat and add the butter or oil. When warm, using a 1/4 cup measure, drop mounds of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until bubbles on the surface form. Flip and cook on the opposite side for an additional minute. Transfer to a preheated oven to keep warm while you work your way through the rest of the batter. Top pancakes with a spoonful of the warm simmered raspberries.
