Raspberry, Almond And Ricotta Cake
  1. Preheat the oven to 170C Fan and grease and line a 23 cm loose-based round tin with non-stick baking paper.

  2. In a large bowl (or a stand up mixer with the whisk attachment) whisk together the ricotta and the olive oil until smooth.

  3. Add the vanilla and the sugar and whisk for a further 2 minutes. Next, add the eggs, one at a time, whisking until the batter is completely smooth.

  4. In a separate bowl, sieve together the flour and baking powder. Add the ground almonds and salt, then whisk gently to combine. Fold into the batter ⅓ at a time until smooth.

  5. Add the lemon zest and half of the raspberries, mixing gently until evenly distributed throughout.

  6. Pour into the prepared tin and spread in a smooth and even layer. Top with the remaining raspberries and sprinkle with the flaked almonds.

  7. Bake for 45- 50 minutes or until golden on top and just firm to touch.

  8. Leave to cool in the tin for at least 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to finish cooling completely.

  9. Dust with sieved icing sugar before serving.
