An easy ricotta cake recipe
Ricotta replaces butter in this cake and adds moisture, which keeps it tasting fresh for a few days.

Andrew Montgomery
This ricotta cake is just as good eaten for breakfast with some strong coffee as it is at teatime or for pudding; I like this sort of versatility with summer recipes. To embellish it as a pudding, try serving with figs, nectarines or peaches and a dollop of crème fraîche.
