Light and delicate, these ricotta lemon pancakes are a delicious change from your regular pancake breakfast! I love pancakes, no one else here does. So I don’t get a chance to whip up something different too often.  This past Sunday, I just did it. And ohhhhhh these are so good!  I used whole milk ricotta (available in the cheese section of most grocery deli departments)  and real maple syrup. You’ve got to try these!

Top them with a pat of fresh grass-fed butter and your favorite pure maple syrup and you have heaven on a plate!
