These light and tender gluten-free pancakes are rich in protein and calcium thanks to creamy ricotta cheese, making them a nourishing and satisfying breakfast or brunch option. Fresh lemon zest adds a bright, citrusy flavor that pairs beautifully with seasonal berries. For even more lemon essence, try adding a few drops of food-grade lemon essential oil. Serve warm with a dollop of extra ricotta, a handful of fresh berries, and a drizzle of pure maple syrup. Elegant yet easy to prepare, these pancakes are a lovely way to celebrate spring mornings or a special occasion like Mother’s Day.
