1 Video | Photo: Ricotta Pancakes Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups pancake and waffle mix (recommended: Krusteaz)
- 1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
- 2/3 cup frozen blueberries
- Melted butter
Directions
Stir 1/3 cup of water and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Stir in the honey. Set aside and keep the honey syrup warm.
Using a rubber spatula, stir the remaining 1 2/3 cups of water and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the pancake mix and stir just until moistened but still lumpy. Stir in the ricotta into the pancake mixture, then stir gently to incorporate the ricotta but maintain a lumpy batter. Fold in the blueberries.
Heat a griddle over medium heat. Brush with the melted butter. Working in batches, spoon 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Serve with the honey syrup.

Had the ingredients and willing diners to try this one. Love this recipe. Nice and crispy and buttery. Love the texture. Not light and fluffy like the Martha Stewart pancake recipe that we've used for years, but a nice change of pace. Especially delicious with fruit. I did everything as directed and loved the result. BY the way, my batter was extremely thick. Can't imagine any way of getting thin batter if you follow the recipe. Cant' help but to wonder if someone added the extra water, sugar and honey to the recipe rather than as a syrup on the side, or maybe the ricotta needs to be drained a bit. Giada doesn't call for it, but I do put mine in a wire mesh strainer for a few minutes to get rid of the moisture. Just a thought.

Excellent & easy to make. Not sure what others were saying about batter being too thin. Came out perfectly. I used strawberries instead of blueberries and everyone loved them!
