Lemon Ricotta Pancakes

September 2nd, 2010

When I was little I loved the ritual of Saturday morning pancakes.  The buttery smell wafted through the entire house and was a guarantee that the rest of the morning would be spent indulgently lazy and satisfied.  I still feel the same way about pancakes and now appreciate slightly more refined recipes like these lemon ricotta pancakes with lemon curd and raspberries (recipe here).  Instead of waiting until the weekend to try them, I decided to make them for dinner and they were full of flavor and a fun change from our normal routine.

    I just recently learned to make this type of pancakes, and I can’t get enough of them! I usually eat them with maple syrup and raspberry, but I’ll have to try the lemon curd.

    These look scrumptious! Saturday morning pancakes are a ritual in our house as well. I am going to have to give these a whirl. I love lemon, and pancakes are perfect any time of the day.

    Pancakes for dinner is an awesome idea. I’ve been craving a blueberry version of this for a while but I might have to change tracks. Looks gorgeous. Almost too pretty to eat!!

    Here in Brasil, saturday morning I usually eat a delicious thing called “cartola”, which is made with banana, butter cheese, suggar and cinamon. It´s perfect and easy to make. I can send to you the recipy. (Sorry about my English mistakes…)

    THOSE LOOK AMAZING. I love pancakes so much, but like Mitch Hedberg put it perfectly, by the end you’re fucking sick of them.

    Definitely trying this recipe out.

    That stack of pancakes is just gorgeous! I’ve had lemon poppyseed pancakes before, which were absolutely delicious, but the ricotta in these must make them incredibly light and fluffy. They certainly sound worth a try!

  • http://glamourous-spirit.blogspot.com/ Kelly

    That is the most insane photo with all that syrup dripping over the pancakes!! I’m not even hungry and my stomach is growling for a bite of those perfect pancakes…W.O.W
    I can only imagine how fun it was to actually eat them ;)

    Emily, your food posts just keep getting better. I have the stomach flu right now and have had no appetite for three days, but I think this post may have just changed that.

    I love breakfast foods for dinner! I made my boyfriend and I Donut French Toast for dinner a little while ago.

    I love the styling in these photos, and the pancakes look SO GOOD.

    those pancakes look delicious! i really like how the recipe calls for lemon juice. although i have never tried these, i can assume for the citrus to add a little bit of a twist to the classic pancake. :) amazing!
