Heavenly Ricotta Pancakes


Heavenly indeed!  These pancakes are light and fluffy like a delicious cloud melting in your mouth!  The ricotta adds a beautiful richness to the flavor.  Dress it up anyway you like, a drizzle of honey and fruit would be delish.  I have seen lots of ricotta pancake recipes with lemon curd served on them (yumm!). Just a sprinkle of confectioners sugar would be wonderful...what ever you choose!   I found the recipe that I used here.  This is definitely an easy and must try recipe.
