I'm a foodie. I watch the Food Network regularly. One of my newest favorite shows is The Best Thing I Ever Ate. There's just something so justifying about a Food Network chef declaring something as the best thing they ever ate. It's like, if you were to go eat the same thing, there's no way in the world you would be disappointed by it.
I happened to catch the breakfast episode where Aida Mollenkamp pronounced her love of some ricotta blueberry pancakes from BLD restaurant in Los Angeles. And just the week before my best friend mentioned that her husband was making her some ricotta pancakes. I was captivated.
I scoured the internet for a recipe that seemed like it was closest to BLD's as portrayed on the show and I chose this one. I was not disappointed in the least! And I've made some pretty $h!tty pancakes over the years! I'm pretty sure that whenever I'm going to make homemade pancakes again, I'm going to be choosing this recipe. They were light and fluffy (which is usually where I fail), and melt in your mouth. Basically, perfect. And considering I nailed these guys on the first try - how could I not revert to this recipe from now on??
So if you're looking for a simple yet decadent morning treat, why not try one of the best things you could ever eat?!
Since I made this recipe exactly as I found it, please click here for the recipe!
My only note will be that for my first pancake I must not have had the griddle hot enough. I had great results over medium heat, as you can see! I was able to cook 4 pancakes at once on my square griddle pan.
Ps. This recipe makes a ton of batter. If you're only cooking for 2, I recommend cutting the recipe in half.

Looks great and I'm not really a fan of pancakes!
I am just watching that very same episode on Food TV. I am excited I saw your blog post with the recipe! Your pancakes look great.
Thank you! I'm out of town at the moment and can't wait to go home and make more! Thanks for your comments :)
