KETO MEDITERRANEAN ORANGE RICOTTA CAKE WITH OLIVE OIL

Keto Mediterranean Orange Ricotta Cake With Olive Oil is an easy keto ricotta cake made from ricotta cheese and almond flour with a subtile touch of extra virgin olive oil. This gluten-free flourless cake is delicious dessert or a nourishing breakfast.

Last weekend I was home alone with my little children. We decided to make some cake 🎂 together. Idea was to make a cake that goes great with a cup of coffee ☕ or tea. We had at home standard ingredients like almond and coconut flour, eggs, and there was ricotta cheese and oranges 🍊. So I wanted to use that cheese and orange zest. I mixed those ingredients and something incredibly tasty came out! Delicious keto ricotta cake! When wanted to take a few photos my children just didn't let me do it. They wanted to eat that cake immediately. And they were so satisfied! Cake was gone the same day. And it went great with coffee and black tea.
