PUMPKIN-RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY APPLE-RAISIN SAUCE



Pumpkin-Ricotta Pancakes with Chunky Apple-Raisin Sauce image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Kosher salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup ricotta
3/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs, separated
Unsalted butter, as needed
Powdered sugar, optional
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice, and tossed with the juice of 1 lemon
3/4 cup apple cider
1 whole cinnamon stick
2 star anise
1/4 cup packed dark or light brown sugar
1 cup maple syrup
1 cup golden raisins

Steps:

  • For the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Make a hole in the center of the flour mixture and add the pumpkin, ricotta, milk, vanilla and egg yolks and mix gently to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Using a mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and look very fluffy, like snowdrifts.
  • Using a rubber spatula, scoop a third of the egg whites into the pumpkin batter and fold to gently combine. Repeat this process two more times until all the whites have been added. Do this gently but quickly ¿ the idea is to not squish the air out of the egg whites. This is the secret to keeping the pancakes fluffy!
  • Place a griddle over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, drop a pat or two of butter onto the griddle. Once melted, schmear the butter around and wipe up any excess with a paper towel.
  • Using a 2-ounce ladle, spoon ladlefuls of batter onto the buttered griddle to create 3-inch pancakes. Let the pancakes cook until bubbles appear on the surface, burst, and then stay open ¿ this will take about 5 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the second side until golden brown. Re-butter the griddle and repeat until all the batter is gone or everyone is full. Hold the finished pancakes in the warm oven.
  • For the compote: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples, cider, cinnamon stick, star anise and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer (BTB, RTS), then continue cooking until the liquid has reduced by half, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the maple syrup and raisins. Simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and serve spooned over the pancakes, dusted with powdered sugar if desired. Try not to eat too many.

Apple-Cinnamon Pancakes image

Grated apple is the secret ingredient in these lightly spiced and fluffy pancakes.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield about 16 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup milk
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for serving
1 small red-skinned apple, cored
For serving: maple syrup or honey

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk the milk, sugar, vanilla and eggs together in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Let cool slightly, then whisk the butter into the egg mixture; reserve the skillet for cooking the pancakes. Whisk the flour mixture into the milk mixture until combined with a few lumps. Grate the apple on the large holes of a box grater and stir into the batter.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter in the reserved skillet over medium heat. Drop 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the hot skillet. Cook until the surface of the batter forms bubbles and the edges are set, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and continue to cook until puffed in the center, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a baking sheet and put in the oven to keep warm while making the rest of the pancakes. Cook the remaining batter, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter as needed.
  • Serve the pancakes with butter and maple syrup or honey.

PUMPKIN-RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY APPLE-RAISIN SAUCE



Pumpkin-Ricotta Pancakes with Chunky Apple-Raisin Sauce image

As a kid, every now and then my mom would make pancakes for dinner--we called it backwards day, and I loved the idea of it. I prefer pancakes that are moist and light and delicious. The trick is to use ricotta cheese and egg whites to lighten the batter--then you'll get nice fluffy pancakes every time. Serve these with a batch of apple compote with some golden raisin action and you'll be a winner every time.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice, and tossed with the juice of 1 lemon
1 whole cinnamon stick
2 star anise
1/4 cup packed dark or light brown sugar
3/4 cup apple cider
1 cup maple syrup
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup pumpkin puree (canned is okay!)
1 cup store-bought or homemade ricotta
3/4 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 large eggs, separated
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 heaping teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Kosher salt

Powdered sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • For the compote: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples, cinnamon stick, star anise, and brown sugar. Cook until the apples are softened, about 4 minutes, then add the cider. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce to a simmer (BTB, RTS), then continue cooking until the liquid has reduced by half.

Let the pancakes cook until bubbles appear on the surface, burst, and then stay open--this will take about 5 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the second side until golden brown.

THE BEST RICOTTA PANCAKES



The Best Ricotta Pancakes image

This is a well loved recipe! I have an old, small crumpled piece of paper with this recipe hand written out from some years ago, not sure where it came from! I have my own scribbles and scratches on it, so I must have changed it somewhere in time, but this is how I have been making it the last 10 years. It is our favorite pancake recipe. So light, a little tangy, and very satisfying. Perfect with some fresh blueberries or strawberries.

LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH SAUTEED APPLES



Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Sauteed Apples image

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch     Sauté     Ricotta     Lemon     Apple     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes about twelve 3- to 4-inch pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

For the sautéed apples
4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
fresh lemon juice to taste
For the pancakes
4 large eggs, separated
1 1/3 cups ricotta
1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
melted butter for brushing the griddle
maple syrup as an accompaniment

Steps:

  • Prepare the sautéed apples:
  • In a large heavy skillet sauté the apples in the butter over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until they are softened, sprinkle them with the sugar and the cinnamon, and cook them over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 10 minutes, or until they are tender. Stir in the lemon juice and keep the mixture warm.
  • Make the pancakes:
  • In a bowl whisk together the egg yolks, the ricotta, the sugar, and the zest, add the flour, and stir the mixture until it is just combined. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they hold stiff peaks, whisk about one fourth of them into the ricotta mixture, and fold in the remaining whites gently but thoroughly. Heat a griddle over moderately high heat until it is hot enough to make drops of water scatter over its surface and brush it with some of the melted butter. Working in batches, pour the batter onto the griddle by 1/4-cup measures and cook the pancakes for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until they are golden, brushing the griddle with some of the melted butter as necessary. Transfer the pancakes as they are cooked to a heatproof platter and keep them warm in a preheated 200°F. oven.
  • Serve the pancakes with the sautéed apples and the maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ricotta cheese for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this will make the pancakes tough.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

These ricotta pancakes with cinnamon apples are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch. They're perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. The ricotta cheese makes the pancakes light and fluffy, while the cinnamon apples add a sweet and spicy flavor. Serve them with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
