Ricotta Cake

Caramelised Apples

Method

Ricotta Cake

  • For best results use the KitchenAid Platinum ExactSlice Food Processor
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan forced oven). Line the base of a 22cm spring form pan with baking paper then grease the base and sides well
  • Fit the food processor with the work bowl and multipurpose blade. Add the bread to the work bowl, select speed 2 and mix 8 seconds or to fine breadcrumbs. Remove and set aside
  • Add the ricotta, sugar, vanilla, ginger, dried apricots and egg yolks. Mix the ingredients on speed 1 until well combined (don't over mix)
  • Using an egg whip, hand mixer or balloon whisk, beat the egg whites to soft peaks
  • Add the currants, breadcrumbs and beaten egg whites to the ricotta mixture. Pulse for 10 seconds, or until just combined. Do not over mix
  • Spread mixture into the prepared pan. Bake on the centre shelf of the oven for 45-50 minutes, or until just firm. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature with the caramelised apples

Tips & Hints:

  • Do not over mix the egg whites. Keep them lightly whipped for a soft tender end result. Inclusions vary model to model.

Caramelised Apples

  • Place the apples into a non stick frying pan with the butter and honey. Cook over a low heat for 5 minutes, tossing occasionally. Add orange juice and simmer until juice has nearly evaporated and the sauce is lightly syrupy.
