About Ricotta donut

Ricotta Donuts are a delightful treat with origins rooted in Italian cuisine. Made using ricotta cheese, flour, sugar, eggs, and a hint of vanilla or citrus zest, these donuts are lightly fried to achieve a golden, tender exterior and a soft, creamy interior. Ricotta adds a boost of protein and a creamy richness that sets them apart from traditional donuts. While they offer a slight nutritional edge due to the protein and calcium in ricotta, they are still a dessert and should be enjoyed in moderation due to their sugar content and frying process. Often dusted with powdered sugar or served alongside fruit compotes, Ricotta Donuts bring indulgent flavor with a touch of Italian tradition, perfect for occasional enjoyment.
