Ricotta Pancakes With Brown Sugar-cherry Sauce Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Sauce:
  • Whisk 1/4 cup water and cornstarch in small bowl. Melt butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add cherries, 1/4 cup water, and brown sugar; stir until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high; add cornstarch mixture and stir until mixture boils and thickens, adding water by tablespoonfuls if sauce is very thick, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in lemon juice.
  • Pancakes:
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in small bowl. Using electric mixer, beat ricotta cheese and egg yolks in large bowl at medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Reduce mixer speed to low; add flour mixture alternately with milk in 2 additions each, beating just until blended and scraping down sides of bowl as needed.
  • Using electric mixer fitted with clean beaters, beat egg whites in medium bowl until stiff but not dry. Fold 1/4 of whites into ricotta mixture to lighten, then fold in remaining whites in 3 more additions.
  • Heat griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat; brush griddle lightly with oil. Drop batter by generous 1/4 cupfuls onto griddle; spread each pancake with offset spatula to form 3 1/2-inch round. Cook until bubbles form on tops of pancakes and bottoms are golden, about 3 minutes. Turn pancakes over and cook until golden brown on bottoms, about 2 minutes.
  • Transfer pancakes to plates. Top with cherry sauce and yogurt, if desired, and serve.

    This is very similar to a recipe my mother-in-law made for us but she used cottage cheese pancakes. Such delicate little yum yums. I'm afraid we quite wore her out and never seemed to get enough. I can tell this would be the same.

    You should pull that cherry sauce out on its own. That has so many good opportunities. Imagine it over crepes filled with duck and scallions.
