Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (whole milk)
  • 1 cup ricotta (whole)
  • 1 egg yolk
  • blueberries
  • maple syrup (optional)
  • additional berries to decorate

Instructions

  • Mix ingredients together. Pour into baking pan. Add strained blueberries to the batter.
  • Bake on 350°F/180°C for 50-55 minutes. For hot days, when you want to not turn on your oven, bake on lower temps such as 325°F/165°C for a little longer (just over an hour). You'll know when a toothpick comes out clean. If the sides are browning, you can add a piece of foil on top or move to a higher baking shelf.
  • Tip: To pull out cake easily, affix parchment paper to sides with cooking spray or a little butter. Let cool before pulling out and easily transport to your plate. Pull away the parchment paper.
    Another tip: if you substitute the ricotta or Greek yogurt for non-whole milk types, use 2-3 egg yolks for thicker consistency.
  • Add additional more berries and maple syrup for brunch and enjoy!
