Best pancakes I have ever HAD, let alone made. Light, fluffy, just enough lemon, not too much sugar. Awesome! Followed the recipe exactly.

Hooray, here’s my excuse to make homemade ricotta and DO something new with it!

These are delicious! I am not an expert pancake maker, so I stupidly sat there waiting for them to bubble on the first few. But once I reread the instructions and just turned them when they were golden, I was all set. I also agree about being patient at a lower oven setting. Will make these again!

Goldilocks (my 8 year old) says that these are too light and fluffy. Oy vey!

I made these today. They are good. I used Friendship Farmer Cheese instead of ricotta. I don’t know if that made a difference. My husband loved them but I was hoping for a more cheese taste. These almost tasted like ordinary pancakes with another texture. Anything I can do to up the ‘cheese’ taste? The apples were delicious however. No complaints about those:)

I have a story about these pancakes too, Alissa. I’m having my Bat Mitzvah TOMORROW and am an excited, nervous mess about. Monday morning I could not go to sleep. So I got up at 5:30, peeled, sliced, cored and sauteed the apples, grated the lemon, beat the whites…it was SO relaxing. These pancakes maybe saved my life. Probably not though. I really like them. They have lots of lemon taste without being bitter or too acidic at all. The apples really compliment them. Next time I think I’ll up the cinnamon, though. My cousins from Burlington, VT stayed here last night, and I have the batter, which I made last night, already in the fridge, so I’ll grill some more of there pancakes up for breakfast. And thanks Deb, for this wonderful-as-usual recipe!!

I have a question, could you use mascapona cheese instead of ricotta? Just wondering, anyway I will try this amazing looking recipe with my cousins tomorrow morning!

So, here I am this morning with two eggs, no milk and two hungry kids… I needed a breakfast idea and FAST! My friend recently turned me on to your blog so after checking every cookbook I owned, not an easy feat, I checked out your blog. These pancakes saved my life today (almost literally!)!!! I just so happened to have some ricotta left from a mac n’ cheese recipe I had made last week and my lemon tree had one more on it! What luck!!! I had to half the recipe (because of the egg shortage) and was so disappointed that there weren’t more pancakes! I’m headed to the store now to buy more eggs! So far my family and I have LOVED everything that I’ve made from your site. Thanks for the inspiration!
