Orange pancakes with orange sauce

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1½ cup Whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons Baking powder
2 teaspoons Grated orange rind
3 tablespoons Honey or less
1 each Egg white
¼ cup Skim milk
¾ cup Orange juice
1 tablespoon Canola oil
1½ cup Part-skim ricotta cheese

Directions

These are a real treat for a leisurely weekend breakfast-beautiful and very tasty. Four pancakes are stacked with layers of ricotta cheese between them. A warm sauce with fresh orange sections is poured overall.

The pancake stack is served in wedges. See MM#54 for the orange sauce recipe.

To Make The Pancakes: Combine flour, baking powder and orange rind. In a separate bowl combine egg white, honey, milk, orange juice and oil. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients just enough to moisten. Bake four large pancakes on a lightly oiled griddle.

To Assemble: Spread ⅓-½ cup ricotta cheese between each pancake and pour half the orange sauce over the top. Cut into wedges and pour sauce over individual wedges. Makes 6 servings.
