One of the most versatile ingredients in the kitchen is certainly ricotta, with which you could create an entire menu from appetizer to dessert.
For this reason, I always have some ready-to-use packages in the fridge, and it is with one of these that I prepared this air fryer ricotta with pepper, lemon, and honey.
Perfect to serve as a main course, perhaps accompanied by some vegetables, but also as a appetizer accompanied by crackers or lingue di suocera.
Now take a minute to read the recipe and then…let’s cook and eat!!

Steps
Air fryer ricotta with pepper, lemon, and honey takes just a few minutes to prepare.
First, remove the ricotta from the container, drain any whey, and pat it dry with paper towel.
Once completely dry, place the ricotta in an air fryer baking tray (or a small aluminum tray) and season the surface with grated lemon zest and ground black pepper.
NOTES
If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the ricotta in a conventional oven, in static mode, at 392°F for 25-30 minutes.
