Orange Pancakes With Orange Sauce

1 1/2 c Whole wheat flour

2 ts Baking powder

2 ts Grated orange rind

3 tb Honey or less

1 ea Egg white

1/4 c Skim milk

3/4 c Orange juice

1 tb Canola oil

1 1/2 c Part-skim ricotta cheese

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 1/3-1/2 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. ~
