Steps for Ricotta and Almond Bundt Cake

  • For this bundt cake, you can use either sheep or cow ricotta, fresh or packaged. I used cow milk ricotta because I like it more. Place the ricotta in a sieve to drain excess whey, cover it, and let it rest for about 1 hour.

  • After the time has passed, put the eggs and sugar in a bowl and beat them until you get a light and fluffy mixture.

  • Gradually pour in the oil and milk, then add the ricotta and mix at low speed to dissolve the ricotta.

  • Add the flour and baking powder little by little, continuing to whisk to eliminate any lumps and obtain a smooth batter.

  • Line a 9.5 to 10-inch bundt pan with parchment paper, pour the batter inside. Decorate with sliced almonds.

    Once ready, remove from the oven and let it cool before removing from the mold.

  • Finally, decorate the Ricotta and Almond Bundt Cake with powdered sugar and serve it.
