Raspberry-Ricotta Cake

YIELD: 8 servings l ACTIVE TIME: 15 minutes l TOTAL TIME: 1 hour 35 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  1. Nonstick vegetable oil spray

    1. 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

    2. 1 cup sugar

    3. 2 teaspoons baking powder

    4. 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt

    5. 3 large eggs

    6. 1 1/2 cups ricotta

    7. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

    8. 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

    9. 1 cup frozen raspberries or blackberries, divided

PREPARATION

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 9"-diameter cake pan with parchment paper and lightly coat with nonstick spray. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.

    1. Whisk eggs, ricotta, and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth; fold into dry ingredients just until blended. Then fold in butter, followed by 3/4 cup raspberries, taking care not to crush berries. Scrape batter into prepared pan and scatter the remaining 1/4 cup raspberries over top.

    2. Bake cake until golden brown and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 50–60 minutes. Let cool at least 20 minutes before unmolding.

    3. Do ahead: Cake can be made 2 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
