Preparation

Step 1

Heat a nonstick griddle to medium-high heat.

Mix together the flour, sugar, salt, lemon zest, ricotta, and yolks in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.

Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff. Fold the egg whites into the ricotta mixture.
Spread some butter on the hot pancake griddle.

Ladle 1/2-cup size pancakes onto the hot griddle and cook for about 2 minutes per side, until golden. Keep pancakes warm in a 200 degree F oven before serving.
