Raspberry/ Blackberry Ricotta Cake



What do you need:

Non Stick vegetable oil spray
1.5 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 tsp baking powder
3/4th tsp salt
3 large eggs (if you are a vegetarian, egg substitute can be used)
1.5 cups low fat ricotta
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 stick or 1/2 cup unsalted melted butter
1 cup frozen raspberries and blackberries (I used raspberries)

How to make:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
  • Line a 9" - diameter cake pan with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray
  • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl
  • Whisk eggs, ricotta and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth; 
  • Fold into dry ingredients just until blended. 
  • Fold in butter, followed by 3/4th cup berries, taking care not to crush berries.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan and scatter remaining 1/4th cup berries over top.
  • Bake cake until golden brown and a knife or fork inserted into center comes out clean. This usually takes 50 - 60 mins. 
  • Let it cool for at-least 20 mins before unmolding
  • To store the cake, tightly wrap it with clear food wrapper at room temperature. Usually stays upto 2 - 3 days.
