Equipment

  • fry pan

Ingredients

  • 375 g tub smooth ricotta
  • 200 g milk of choice
  • 220 g plain flour
  • 50 g sugar increase up to 80 g depending on the sweetness of your berries (optional)
  • 3 eggs
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste or vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 150 g blueberries ideally fresh, but frozen ok just will colour pancakes

Instructions

Thermo cooker

  • Add all ingredients except blueberries to mixer bowl. Mix 10 sec/speed 4/MC on.
  • Add blueberries. Fold in with a spatula or mix for 4 sec/speed 3/MC on.

Conventional

  • Sift dry ingredients together.
  • By hand of with electric beaters, add wet ingredients to dry and mix.
  • Fold in blueberries with a spatula.

To Cook

  • Heat a non-stick pan over medium to low heat and add a little bit of butter or oil.
  • Cook 1/8 cup portions until bubbles appear on top, then flip and cook until golden. Repeat until mixture is all used.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days in an airtight container or freeze between baking paper to pop into lunchboxes.

Notes

Store in a container in the fridge up to 5 days (if they last that one). Can also be frozen.
Deli firm ricotta can also be used. Increase milk by an additional 100-150g milk. Blend the milk and ricotta together for 10 seconds/speed 4/MC on. Then continue on with recipe. 
Like to use cottage cheese instead of ricotta? I suggest blending the cottage cheese with the milk only at the start to remove lumps. Then continue on with recipe.
