Blueberry pancakes enhanced with ricotta - yum!

Ingredients:

4 medium egg yolks

1 cup (4 oz) Wisconsin part-skim ricotta cheese

3/4 cup flour

1 Tbsp sugar

1/4 tsp salt

4 medium egg whites

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, thawed and drained

2 tsp canola oil

Directions:

Beat egg yolks. Add cheese, flour, sugar and salt. Beat until smooth, then set aside.

Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gently fold cheese mixture and blueberries into egg whites.

Lightly oil a heated griddle or frying pan. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup batter onto hot griddle. Turn pancakes when they are puffed and full of bubbles. Cook other side until golden brown.
