Ingredients

- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- 2 tsp olive or canola oil, divided
Instructions

prepare pancakes-
- Combine baking powder and the flour.
- In a separate bowl, mix the eggs until foamy. Add the ricotta, sugar, lemon juice, oil, milk and mix.
- Add the flour. Mix until batter is well incorporated.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp butter and a 1 tsp oil.
- Using a 1/4 measuring cup, pour batter into skillet. Don't overcrowd the pan (I cook the pancakes in two batches).
- Enjoy pancakes with berry syrup, butter or maple syrup.
Notes
*Wipe down the skillet after each batch of pancake. Butter tends to burn quickly.
*If you don't want berry pieces in your syrup, mash the berries as you mix the syrup.
