Serves 12
You will need
- 150g plain flour
- 225g tub of ricotta
- 190ml whole milk

- 1 tbsp Cartwright & Butler Raspberry Preserve

Raspberry & Ricotta Pancakes
Method:
1) Mix together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a small bowl.
2) Combine ricotta, milk, egg yolks, jam and vanilla in a separate, larger mixing bowl.
3) Add the dry ingredients to the ricotta and milk mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
4) Beat the egg whites with a handheld electric mixer until stiff. Stir a small spoon of the egg whites into the pancake batter to lighten the batter, then fold in the remaining whites with a metal spoon.
5) Heat a heavy based frying pan over medium heat. Melt a small amount of butter in the pan, just enough to coat the surface of the pan. Add a small ladle of batter to the pan. Cook the pancakes for around 3 or 4 minutes, until the undersides are golden and you see a few bubbles popping through the pancakes. Flip the pancakes and cook another 2 to 3 minutes, until golden.
6) Repeat with the remaining batter.
7) Serve the pancakes immediately, with fresh raspberries, yogurt and Cartwright & Butler Raspberry Preserve.
