Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake Recipe - NO FLOUR

Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake Recipe - NO FLOUR
This cake melts in your mouth. It's a mix between a cake and a cheesecake. It's fragrant and delicious. I hope you give it a try.
RECIPE:
300 g ricotta (1 cup + 1/2 cup or 10.6 oz)
100 g sugar (1/2 cup)
40 g butter (3 tbsp)
3 eggs
50 g cornstarch (1/3 cup)
1 tsp vanilla extract
30 g lemon juice (2 tbsp)
lemon zest
NOTES:
Use the same size pan as mine. This is the pan I used: amzn.to/32ICJgn OR you can buy the complete set of springform pans set: amzn.to/3AI8Klg
If the Ricotta you use it's wetter than the one I used, I suggest draining for a bit to remove the excess liquid.
Clean and dry well the whisks before whipping up the egg whites

Outstanding cake - light and tasty as promised

[@GiuliaArdizzone]

I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you for letting me know ☺️✨

[@nicolee1161]

How long do u cook? 15? 50?

[@Maria-j4h9u]

You know what I loved about your video, you did everything quick, no long drawn out of cracking eggs, zesting the lemons, right to the point, and it looks delicious, I will be trying it !

[@brigittecarcagno4338]

When I first made this cake, my husband was plunged back 60 years when his mother used to make ricotta cheesecake and it was nostalgic and it was a beautiful emotion you have made me a star in the kitchen. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@GiuliaArdizzone]

This is so sweet. Thank you for letting me know. It's a real pleasure to hear this ✨

[@richardpaolino9813]

Nicely Done!! I’m a American Italian 3rd generation from Brooklyn NY, I’ve made this exactly has you nicely & simply instructed and it was delicious brought back memories from when I was little at my grandparents just like my grandma used to make😊 thank you for this delicious amazing recipe

[@nataliez3431]

I made this and it was wonderful. To dress up the cake a little, I made some candied lemons by using 1 to 1 ratio of water and sugar, brought that liquid to a boil and then added thinly sliced lemons and simmered until the lemons were translucent. Then I placed them on top of the cake. It looked amazing. A brilliant recipe. For those of you who have a 375 or 400g tub of ricotta, just use 4 eggs instead of 3. Worked beautifully. Thanks again for your recipe!

[@rosedecaro]

So 4 eggs for a 400 tub of riccotta and how many egg whites? 3 or 4 Also; Would you mind sharing your candied lemon topping recipe with me? I used a 7 inch round pan did you use a larger pan for 4 eggs and did yu cook it longer? Mine looks like hers!!! I put mine on IG and tagged her! 👌🏽❤️

Recommendation- Write out the ingredients in ORDER that you use them when baking... 1. Egg yolks 2. Sugar etc. Makes for easier following the directions.

[@Mr_Zimm]

[@chrisyoung8062]

Since this is a no-flour recipe, it really lends itself to a Keto version simply by substituting the sugar with something like Allulouse or Swerve and using something in the place of the cornstarch. I'm thinking Xantham Gum might be the best substitute if you could figure out the amount. It requires far less than cornstarch when used as a thickener/binder.. If anyone knows how well it would work in place for this recipe I'd love to know.

Thank you so much Olya. I hope you enjoyed it. Try to find a good quality ricotta and if it is too watery make sure to drain the excess water. I hope this helps :)
