Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium Valencia orange
1 (15 ounce) container whole-milk ricotta cheese
4 large eggs
½ cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons white sugar
½ teaspoon baking powder
cooking spray
¼ cup maple syrup, or to taste

Steps:

  • Grate 1 teaspoon zest from orange. Remove and discard the remaining peel, and cut orange into wheels. Set zest and orange wheels aside.
  • Whisk ricotta cheese, eggs, and orange zest together in a medium bowl. Add flour, sugar, and baking powder; whisk to combine.
  • Spray a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat for 1 minute. Drop about 1/4 of the batter into the hot skillet and cook until bubbly, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until golden brown, another 4 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter to make 3 more pancakes.
  • Serve with orange wheels and maple syrup.
