Equipment

  • Springform baking pan

Ingredients
  

  • 600 grams ricotta cheese, fresh
  • 100 ml honey
  • 3 pieces eggs room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch (corn flour)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

To drizzle

  • 60 ml honey
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180 deg C and grease a 20cm (8 inch) springform baking pan.
  • Whisk all the ingredients in a large bowl, until smooth and free of any lumps.
  • Pour into baking pan and cook for 45-50 mins until the top has browned and the centre of the melopita no longer wobbles.
