Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 2 tbsp granulated sugar.
- Step 2: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup ricotta cheese, 3 egg yolks, 1/2 cup whole milk, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and 2 tbsp melted butter until smooth. Fold wet ingredients into dry until just combined.
- Step 3: In a clean bowl, beat 3 egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into the batter, then fold in 1/2 cup fresh blueberries.
- Step 4: Lightly grease a 9-inch square baking dish and pour batter evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Step 5: Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cook for 5-7 minutes until strawberries soften and release juices, creating a compote.
- Step 6: Serve warm ricotta blueberry pancakes topped with strawberry compote and a drizzle of maple syrup for a patriotic breakfast treat.
