Lemon Ricotta Cake

The day I first tasted a lemon ricotta cake was the day I knew how I wanted to make my lemon cakes forever. Tender, rich, zesty, packed with lemon flavor, and a subtle hint of vanilla. This recipe is perfect for weekend brunch or just a good cake to make during the week to snack on every now and again... usually they don't last long. I almost made some chamomile ice cream for this...could you imagine!! Until next time.

Started noticing how much you've changed over the years Byron (In a good way).
You look so mature now.

[DarthBalsamic]

Don't eat all three on your own now. Lol
I enjoy your cooking. Good stuff.

Looks amazing! Lemon 🍋 is one of my favorites!

Byron is this enough batter to do a 9x13 pan? If so about long to bake? I'm so going to try this since I love anything lemon cake and looks way easy/fast to make.

Could you make a video on how to make ricotta? Id love to see how you make it, if you make it.

I bet those cakes all disappeared into the bellies of little boys in the blink of an eye. We miss you guys. XO Great recipe. Lemon + Ricotta would get my Italian nana’s enthused approval.

What a great looking recipe Byron! Aside from lemon, what are other flavors you would recommend to put in this cake?

[marci.curious]
