INGREDIENTS
1 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese (250g)
3 Large Eggs (150g)
1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder (30g)
0.5 cup Whole Wheat Flour (60g)
0.5 cup Skim Milk (120g)
1 teaspoon Baking Powder (5g)
1 Fresh Lemon (for zest and juice, ~60g)
Pinch of Salt
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, whisk together the ricotta cheese, eggs, and vanilla whey protein powder until smooth.
Sift in the whole wheat flour and baking powder, then add the skim milk, a pinch of salt, and mix until just combined.
Finely grate the zest from the lemon and squeeze in its juice. Gently fold these into the batter, ensuring an even distribution of lemon flavor.
Heat a non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges begin to set.
Carefully flip each pancake and cook for an additional 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with a light dusting of powdered sugar or fresh fruit for extra flair.
