Main Ingredients
Ricotta Cheese
Ricotta cheese is the star ingredient in this recipe, providing moisture and richness that elevates the texture of the cake. You’ll need 1 cup of fresh ricotta cheese for this recipe. It adds a creamy consistency without being overly heavy, making the cake light yet satisfying. Opt for whole milk ricotta for the best results; its creaminess enhances the overall flavor profile.
All-Purpose Flour
Next up is all-purpose flour, which serves as the foundation for our cake structure. Use 1 ½ cups of all-purpose flour to give the cake its necessary body while ensuring it remains tender and fluffy. Make sure to sift the flour before measuring to avoid lumps and ensure even mixing.

Sugar
Sugar adds sweetness and balances out the tartness of the lemon juice in this recipe. You will need 1 cup of granulated sugar. This ingredient not only sweetens but also helps achieve a lovely golden crust during baking.
Eggs
Eggs play multiple roles in this Easy Lemon Ricotta Cake—they provide moisture, act as a binding agent, and contribute to leavening when whipped. You’ll need 3 large eggs at room temperature for optimal incorporation into your batter.
