Ricotta Olive Oil Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F.
• Combine flour and baking powder. Beat all remaining ingredients except eggs in large bowl with mixer until blended.
• Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Gradually beat in flour mixture until well blended.
• Pour into greased and floured 9x5-inch loaf pan.
• Bake 1 hour 20 min. or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 min. Remove cake from pan to wire rack; cool completely.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350ºF. Lightly grease a 9×5" loaf pan or a 10-12-cup Bundt pan (or spray with nonstick cooking spray). If using a loaf pan, line it with parchment paper, leaving about 2" of excess on each side to help you lift the cake out of the pan. If using a Bundt, sprinkle the inside of the pan with sugar, including the center cone.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, ricotta, and sour cream until combined. Add the oil and vanilla and mix until well blended. Whisk in the sugar, baking powder, salt, and zest until well combined. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the flour until just incorporated.
• Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with the spatula. Bake until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 50-65 minutes for the loaf pan, 40-55 minutes for the Bundt, rotating the pan halfway through baking.
• Transfer to a wire rack and let the cake cool in the pan for at least 1 hour before unmolding and slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
• Prepare cake: combine cake mix, eggs, ricotta cheese, oil, orange juice, orange zest, and orange extract in a large bowl. Mix until batter is well combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Carefully invert onto a serving platter and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Prepare glaze: mix powdered sugar, orange juice, and orange zest together in a small bowl. Drizzle glaze over the cooled cake.
