CAKE WITH RICOTTA AND DOUBLE PEACH

Finding some peaches at the supermarket, I thought of preparing a nice cake, but when I laid out all the ingredients on the work table, I realized that although the fruit was ripe and sweet, it was too little. So, I decided to also use a jar of CANNED PEACHES. So, here’s the CAKE WITH RICOTTA AND DOUBLE PEACH!

The consistency of the ricotta and peach cake is soft and fluffy with a delicate taste that can be flavored with grated lemon zest and/or vanilla.

While making the batter, it seemed a bit too “stiff,” but with the diced canned peaches, the texture became perfectly soft and rightly creamy.

Summer fruit is arriving, soon cherries will come too, and… my kitchen is buzzing as they say, hehe!

Steps

  • 1) First, I chopped the canned peaches, draining them well from the preserving liquid, and set them aside.

    2) Preheat the oven to 340°F (static mode), wash, and also slice the fresh peaches, clearly removing the pit.

    3) In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar using electric beaters or by hand until they are frothy. Add the ricotta, instant baking powder, flour, and pinch of salt.

    4) Mix everything well, and finally add the CANNED PEACHES cut into more or less equally sized cubes… just saying, right?

    5) Pour the mixture into the pan lined with parchment paper or coated with non-stick spray, and after leveling it, place the peach slices as you like.

    6) Bake at 340°F in the preheated oven and cook the CAKE WITH RICOTTA AND DOUBLE PEACH for about 40 minutes or depending on your home oven’s characteristics.

    7) Once cooked, let it cool, then unmold and unpan THE CAKE WITH FRESH AND CANNED PEACHES with ricotta-based batter, WITHOUT OIL and WITHOUT BUTTER.

    8) If you like, a nice sprinkle of powdered sugar fits well before serving it at the table, and…

    Enjoy your meal!
