Lemon & Ricotta Baked Pancakes
A quickie and a goodie…it started as a dessert idea, but turned into breakfast one morning at my house when my son who is ALWAYS hungry, complained about the lack of breakfast foods that jumped out of the cupboard and into his mouth.
So, to protect myself from further breakfast wrath, I did a quick pancake batter, looked at what was available in the fridge, and this beauty was the result…hope you will find these on your table soon…perhaps you can organise someone other than the mother in the house, to make them for Mum/you? Easily prepared the night before, and then simply assembled in the morning…perfect way to avoid that burnt toast, cold coffee morning that may be headed your way!!
