1
In a large bowl, whisk the flour with the baking powder, salt and sugar.

In another medium bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, ricotta, lemon juice and lemon zest. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just incorporated.
3
Heat a nonstick griddle over medium-low heat. Melt butter on the surface or spray with cooking oil spray.
