For extra fluffy pancakes, separate the egg and whisk the egg white until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg white into the batter just before cooking.
Use full-fat ricotta cheese for the best flavor and texture.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, maple syrup, a dusting of powdered sugar, or a dollop of extra ricotta cheese and a sprinkle of lemon zest.

    The resting time really makes a difference. The pancakes were so much better than when I made them without resting the batter.

    These pancakes are a little more work than regular pancakes, but they're definitely worth it.
