Peach and Ricotta Mini Cakes

These baked peach and ricotta mini cakes are a fresh and delicate dessert, perfect for summer.

Made with simple ingredients like creamy ricotta, ripe peaches, and a drizzle of honey, they are perfect for breakfast, a snack, or as a light meal’s end.
These little cakes are without cream or butter, they are baked and served cold: a great idea for those who love genuine but delicious desserts.

A simple mix of fruit, creaminess, and lightness worth trying!

Recommended pairings for me:
Serve them with a glass of iced lemon tea or peach herbal tea.
For an extra touch, accompany them with a spoonful of Greek yogurt or a raspberry sauce/coulis to contrast the sweetness.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups ricotta

Easy Steps for These Summer Treats

  • I pour the ricotta into a bowl and mix it with honey or syrup to taste to get a cream.

    I wash and thinly slice the peaches clearly without the pit.

  • I butter the crème caramel molds of 3 inches or whatever size you prefer!

    On the buttered bottom, I put about a tablespoon of ricotta, forming a uniform layer that I cover with peach slices.

  • I proceed by making other layers of fruit and ricotta and finish by baking at 392°F for about 30 minutes.

  • Once cooked, I let the ricotta and peach mini cakes cool completely in the fridge so that everything compacts perfectly.

  • When enjoying the cream-free sweets with peaches, I carefully unmold them and decorate with more peach slices, mint leaves, and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

  • Fresh, summer, light! Enjoy and happy cooking!
