Equipment
- 2 mixing bowls
- 1 griddle or large skillet
Ingredients
- 1½ cups all purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- ½ cup orange juice
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp orange zest
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together the all purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl mix together the buttermilk, ricotta, orange juice, egg, oil, vanilla extract and and orange zest. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and whisk until everything is just incorporated ( a few lumps are fine).
- Set the batter aside to rest for 10 minutes. While the batter is resting preheat your griddle over medium heat and grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Measure out the pancakes using about 1/3 cup of batter. Cook each pancake about 3-4 minutes until the tops of the pancakes have bubbles and the edges are dry. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes or until golden. Serve as desired.
