1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, buttermilk, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is a little lumpy.
4. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter or oil to coat the surface.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
6. Serve the pancakes warm, drizzled with maple syrup or honey, and garnished with fresh lemon wedges, mint leaves, and a dusting of powdered sugar.
