In one bowl mix together flours, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

STEP 2

In another bowl mix milk, eggs, vanilla, ricotta, melted butter, maple syrup, lemon zest and lemon juice.

STEP 3

Mix dry ingredients with wet ingredients until just incorporated, but don’t over mix. Fold in blueberries.

STEP 4

Heat a griddle to medium heat. Butter or coat with cooking spray. Pour batter into pancakes of desired size. Do not flip until bubbles appear on top of pancakes. About 2-3 minutes. Pancakes should be puffed and golden brown on both sides when ready. Cook in batches to use all of the batter.
