RICOTTA APPLE PANCAKES
These little wonders are light and fluffy. They actually hold together like pancakes should!
I’ve only used apples, but zucchini would work well, too. Change up the spices or add some different extracts…

3 eggs, separated
1 whole egg
1 cup part skin ricotta
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Apple Pie Spice OR cinnamon
1 tablespoon Splenda

.
Beat 3 egg whites until stiff; set aside. Combine remaining ingredients just until blended. Fold in egg whites. Spray skillet with non stick spray and heat over medium-low. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into hot skillet and cook until golden brown, turning once. Make 8 – three pancakes servings.
