I guess ricotta is mostly commonly associated with cooking. But it actually is really great to bake with as well! Ricotta make the baked goods both moist, tender and super delicious. It also makes it feel both fresh and light with a hint both tangy and sweet flavors. It can be compared to using either cottage cheese or yogurt in baking, but if you ask me it provides even more moist and make the baked goods more tender then the above. Not to mention that it is high in protein which makes it more nutritious. This cake is an easy, super delicious and tender apple and ricotta cake that is perfect to bake during fall. The cake is also flavored with both vanilla and cinnamon which provides a warm and sweet taste to the cake. This cake is perfect to serve both as an afternoon snack as well as for dessert.

A few tips:

  • I would recommend you to use really delicious autumn apples when making this cake. Preferably a variety that is both juicy, sweet and a bit tart apples. It really makes such a wonderful contrast to the sweet and warm vanilla and cinnamon. But the most important thing is to use apples that you like.
  • The baking time may vary depending on what type of ricotta you use. So use a toothpick to check if it is done.
  • Let the cake cool before removing it from the spring form.
  • Don’t dust with the icing sugar until it has cooled, otherwise it will melt.
