Blackberry & Ricotta Cake Method:
- Set the oven to 175 degrees C (fan).
- Line a 9” cake tin.
- In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the ricotta, eggs, softened butter and vanilla.
- Whisk until very well combined - you may still have little lumps of butter, and that's absolutely fine.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir together until just combined, doing so nice and gently.
- Pour half the mixture into the tin and level off, then add half the blackberries, ensuring an even distribution.
- Cover with the remaining batter, then the rest of the blackberries, again ensuring an even covering. Push the top layer of blackberries gently into the batter with the back of a spoon.
- Pop in the oven for 50 mins to an hour until golden brown and an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- Allow to cool before dusting with icing sugar and digging in!
