In a large bowl, blend the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar together.
In another bowl, whisk the ricotta cheese, eggs, 1 tbsp oil, vanilla extract, and milk until the mixture is well combined.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can make the pancakes tough.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or oil to the pan. Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop the batter into the pan.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter or oil to the pan as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favourite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
