Instructions soft vanilla and ricotta breakfast cake
- For this recipe all the ingredients must be at room temperature. This also includes ricotta cheese.
- Divide the whites from the yolks into two different bowls. Whip the whites until stiff and set aside.
- Add the sugar to the egg yolks and whip with the mixer. Now add the soft butter and whip until all the three ingredients combine.
- Add the ricotta cheese and vanilla extract or the seeds from a vanilla bean cut in half. Beat again to mix everything well.
- Now add the egg whites and gently incorporate them with the movements from the bottom to the top using a spoon or a silicone spatula.
- Sift all-purpose flour with the baking powder and a pinch of salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix with a spoon or a whisk until the batter is homogeneous and without visible traces of flour.
- Line the bottom of a 20 cm wide round baking pan with a circle of baking paper. Grease the edge of the pan with some butter and dust it with flour. Add the prepared batter and distribute evenly.
Baking time
- Bake in a preheated static oven at 180 ° for 50 – 55 minutes. Use the toothpick test to check if the cake is ready. If you use a larger pan, reduce the minutes needed for baking.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before turning the pan upside down and removing the cake. Let it cool completely before serving.
