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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

I love this recipe!!!<br />Once in a while I get a wild hair and make breakfast food for dinner. Usually I make a dense French Toast using extra eggs to be filling. But I'm going to make this for my breakfast food for dinner because it's incredibly yummy and filling!!! <br />This was a Wow! Pancake for my family. I got lots of compliments and my fellas could only eat 3 pancakes... I made these about 3 &amp; 1/2" to 4" in diameter using a 1/2 cup scoop to pour batter into the frying pan. For fun I used a ratio of 1 part butter to 3 parts oil in my frying pan. I have given up on using a nonstick pan since even expensive ones seem to last only 2 years at most and then start to stick. And I only use plastic or silicone utensils to cook in nonstick pans. Oh well... <br />This was super delicious and I'll be making it often.<br />P.S. Instead of using the sugar in the mix, I put the berries in a separate bowl, added sugar and mashed up a few of the berries. I let it sit for a few minutes for the berry juice to soak up the sugar. I mixed this into the batter. The pancakes didn't turn purple. lol! Some of my berries were tart to I did this to keep the pancakes from having sour spots where there was an extra tart berry. It worked out great. This may be good for people that like their berries sweeter.<br />Great recipe! I absolutely loved this. I believe I could have this every day and not be bored with it after 365 days! lol!
