Ricotta pancakes are wonderful – fluffy and light with meltingly soft insides. Here they are served with honey and figs for a dessert, but they are also great for breakfast with fresh berries or butter and maple syrup.

milk 100ml

baking powder ½ tsp
egg yolks 2
caster sugar 1 tbsp

Method

Step 1

Whizz the ricotta in a food processor with the milk, flour, baking powder, egg yolks, sugar and a few drops of vanilla extract to make a smooth batter.
Step 2

Gently fold the egg whites into the batter. Melt a little butter in a non-stick frying pan, drop in spoonfuls of batter and cook in batches, about 4 at a time, until golden. Turn and cook the other side. Serve with figs and honey.
