ricotta pie
Creamy Easter dessert
Ricotta pie is an Italian-American dessert featuring a filling of sweetened ricotta cheese baked in a crust.
The filling is typically enriched with eggs, sugar, and flavorings like vanilla, citrus zest, or cinnamon.
It appears on holiday tables, especially at Easter and Christmas: Grandma always made ricotta pie for Easter dinner.
The texture falls between cheesecake and custard.
