Preparation of RICOTTA AND ALMOND BUNDT CAKE
Butter and flour a bundt cake pan with a diameter of 8.7 inches.
Preheat the oven to 350°F static or 320°F fan (I use the fan).
Crack the eggs into a bowl with the sugar; beat with electric beaters until you get a light and frothy mixture.
Add grated orange zest, sunflower oil, and ricotta; mix with beaters until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Combine the flour and baking powder by sifting them. Work for a few moments with electric beaters on low speed to mix everything well.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan (bundt cake pan with a diameter of 8.7 inches) and level it with the back of a spoon. Distribute the sliced almonds on the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F static or 320°F fan for 35-40 minutes (do the toothpick test). At the end of baking, I always leave my cakes in the turned-off oven with the door slightly open for 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven, let the cake cool slightly, then remove it from the pan and let it cool completely on a rack.
