There's nothing like Buttermilk Pancakes but this one has a twist using Olive the Best "Butter" olive oil. (A vegan olive oil that offers the taste of butter using botanicals and is a healthier fat too!)
…serve them up with ricotta, fresh berries and our delicious, mouth-watering Maple Dark Balsamic for the perfect breakfast!

 1 cup all purpose flour
 1 tbsp granulated sugar
 1 tsp baking powder
 ¼ tsp baking soda

To make whipped ricotta, blend ricotta cheese, milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a small food processor until smooth.
