Air Fryer Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake
Description
Air Fryer Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake is a recipe for Ricotta Cake, a traditional Italian cake. It's really easy to make, and you can use any flavor you want, but today I used a simple lemon extract to enhance the flavor.
Ingredients
- 3 large egg whites
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 lemon zest
Instructions
- Start by whisking the egg whites into soft peaks, just keep on whisking until they are solid.
- Then in another bowl, mix together the yolks salt, and sugar until well blended. Then mix in the melted butter, flour, baking powder, ricotta cheese, and lemon zest. Once that batter is well combined, mix in the egg whites.
- Spray an air fryer-safe pan with non-stick cooking spray, and then pour the batter into the pan.
- Bake at 320 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 20 minutes. Check your cake, see if it is done, if not add an additional 5 minutes.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy!
