  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • Cooking spray
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
  • 1 heaping cup frozen raspberries (divided)
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper before spraying it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined and free from lumps.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, ricotta cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth, then stir into the dry mixture until just combined.
  4. Gently fold in the melted butter and three-quarters of the frozen raspberries without crushing them too much.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan evenly, scatter remaining raspberries on top along with sliced almonds, and bake for about 50 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for at least twenty minutes before removing it to allow it to set properly.
