Mini ricotta and lemon doughnuts

עודכן: 16 ביוני 2021




Have I already mention that I'm addicted to Italian food?

So I decided to make an Italian-inspired doughnuts, mini ricotta and lemon doughnuts that will make you say Mama Mia !!

The recipe is very easy and quick to make, and the result is wonderful!

I will recommend frying the doughnuts just before the time you're planning on serving it, it's the best when it's still warm :)



Ingredients:

  • 400g of all-purpose flour

  • 10g of baking powder

  • 3 eggs

  • 250g of fresh ricotta cheese(unsalted)

  • 125g of sugar

  • A tablespoon of lemon zest

  • A pinch of baking soda

  • Icing sugar

Preparation:

  • In a bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and baking soda.

  • In another bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar using a hand or stand mixer for 2-3 minutes.

  • Add the ricotta and lemon zest to the eggs and mix.

  • Add the flour mixture to the ricotta mixture and mix gently to combine the ingredients using a spatula.

  • Use a small scoop of ice cream (3.5cm in diameter) or by using two teaspoons, take a small amount of the batter and carefully put it into hot oil.

  • Fry it until golden on both sides.

  • Remove from the oil and place on a plate with absorbent paper.

  • Sprinkle icing sugar on top.

You can upgrade the doughnuts by adding a tablespoon of amaretto liquor to the batter.

And of course, it would be very nice to serve it alongside delicious homemade jam.
