About Ricotta donuts
Ricotta donuts are a delightful Italian-inspired treat, traditionally made with ricotta cheese, flour, sugar, eggs, and a leavening agent like baking powder. These airy, tender donuts are typically fried until golden and can be dusted with powdered sugar or served with a sweet dipping sauce. The ricotta cheese lends a creamy texture and enhances the flavor while contributing a modest amount of protein. However, because they are fried, ricotta donuts can be high in calories and fat, particularly saturated fat. They also tend to contain added sugars, making them a decadent indulgence rather than a healthy everyday choice. While not a health food, their smaller size compared to regular donuts can make portion control easier. Perfect for special occasions or dessert spreads, ricotta donuts are a delicious way to showcase the richness and tradition of Italian pastry cuisine.
