These fluffy blueberry ricotta pancakes have a creamy texture and a soft, cloud-like fluffiness enhanced by ricotta cheese and juicy blueberries. Perfect for a cozy brunch or a comforting breakfast treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (125g) whole-milk ricotta cheese
  • ⅔ cup (160ml) whole milk
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (about 110g) fresh blueberries
  • Unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly, for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the ricotta cheese until smooth. Add the milk, egg, and vanilla extract and whisk until fully combined and creamy.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold together with a spatula just until combined. The batter will be thick and lumpy; do not overmix.
  4. Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, keeping them whole.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and brush lightly with melted butter.
  6. Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, pour batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set.
  7. Flip carefully and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Adjust heat if pancakes brown too fast or remain pale.
  8. Transfer cooked pancakes to a cooling rack or plate lined with paper towels to keep from getting soggy. Serve immediately or keep warm in a low oven (about 200°F).

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy. Use room temperature ingredients for best results. Fold in blueberries gently to keep them whole. The first pancake is a test to adjust heat and batter consistency. If batter is too thick, add a splash of milk sparingly.
