Creamy lemon cake recipe, I prepare it with yogurt and ricotta!
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 35 minutes
Total time: 45 minutes
Servings: 6-7 slices
Calories: 130 per slice
Ingredients
- 350 g of plain yogurt
- 250 g of light ricotta
- 4 eggs
- 40 g of corn starch
- 55 g of powdered sweetener (or alternatively 110 g of normal sugar)
- 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
- 4-5 drops of lemon essence
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Enough icing sugar
Preparation
- To start, break the eggs into a bowl, add the sweetener (or sugar) and beat with an electric whisk until the mixture becomes frothy.
- Now add the corn starch and start beating again with the electric whisk, add the ricotta and mix with a hand whisk, continue with the yogurt and start mixing again.
- Once the ingredients are well integrated with each other, add the grated lemon zest and the lemon essence, stir with a hand whisk , then add the baking powder, giving the mixture another stir.
- Once this is done, line a square mold with a diameter of 18 centimeters with special paper (oil or butter it if you prefer) and transfer your dough.
- Finally, cook in a preheated oven in static mode for 45 minutes at a temperature of 170° (always check the cake during cooking, if the surface starts to brown too much, lower the temperature to 150°-160°C).
- Once finished, wait for the cake to cool, remove it from the mold and dust it with icing sugar.
Notes: To preserve the cake, place it in the refrigerator and remove it 10-15 minutes before eating it. In this way it will maintain its fragrance and softness for 3 days.
