Best 6 Peachy Swedes With Ricotta Filling Recipes

RICOTTA PEACH TART

Steps:

• Put an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Place the puff pastry between two sheets of parchment paper and roll it out a bit to make a 9-by-10-inch rectangle. Remove the top piece of paper. Use the tip of a sharp knife to gently score the dough, without cutting all the way through, 1 inch from the edges all the way around. Transfer to a sheet pan and store in the freezer while you prepare the peaches.
• Cut the peaches into 1-inch wedges. Toss them with 1 tablespoon honey. Remove the dough from the freezer, sprinkle on the thyme, and arrange the peaches in a single layer on top, leaving the border clear.
• Bake the tart until the crust is deep golden-brown and the peaches are tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven to a cooling rack and cool slightly before serving. Cut into squares, top each with a dollop of ricotta, and drizzle some honey over the cheese.

ROASTED PEACHES WITH RICOTTA

Steps:

• Arrange peaches, cut side up, in glass baking dish.
• Sprinkle with sugar and dot with butter.
• Bake 30 minutes at 325 degrees.
• With slotted spoon, transfer peaches to individual plates.
• Reserve juices.
• In bowl, mix ricotta and honey.
• Stir in reserved juices.
• Pile ricotta mixture onto peaches and sprinkle with almonds.

SWEET BAKED RICOTTA WITH GLAZED PEACHES

Steps:

• To bake the ricotta:
• Preheat the oven to 150°C (300°F).
• In a large bowl, whisk together the ricotta and the eggs.
• Split the vanilla bean and scrape in the seeds.
• Sift in the icing sugar and mix thoroughly. Spoon the ricotta mixture into the loaf tin and cover with aluminum foil.
• Place the tin into a slightly larger baking pan and pour in enough water to come about half-way up the side of the loaf tin. Carefully place the baking pan in the oven. Bake the ricotta for 40 minutes, or until firm.
• When the ricotta is ready, remove the loaf tin from the water bath and remove the foil. Let the ricotta cool, then cover it with plastic wrap (cling film) and refrigerate. When it is thoroughly cold you can turn it out of the tin and slice it as required.
• It will have more flavour if you allow it to warm to room temperature before serving it.
• To glaze the peaches:
• Preheat the griller (broiler) to hot.
• Halve the peaches and remove the skins if desired (if using frozen peaches, defrost). Sprinkle with the extra icing sugar and place under the griller (broiler) until the sugar is caramelised, about 2-5 minutes.
• To serve, arrange ricotta slices and two peach halves on each plate.

GRILLED PEACHES AND RICOTTA

Steps:

• 1. Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium-high, or place a ridged grill pan over medium-high heat.
• 2. Spread the butter over each of the peach halves.
• 3. Grill the peaches, flat sides down, until warmed through, about 4 minutes.
• 4. Meanwhile, bring 1/2 cup water to a boil. Pour in the sugar and honey and stir until all the sugar has dissolved.
• 5. Serve the peach halves with generous spoonfuls of the ricotta in the centers, and drizzled with the sugar syrup.

SWEET RICOTTA PASTRIES

Steps:

• Make filling:
• Bring milk and zest to a simmer in a small heavy saucepan, then remove from heat. Whisk together yolk, sugar, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt in a bowl. Whisk in milk, then transfer mixture to saucepan.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly, and boil 1 minute. Stir in vanilla, then transfer to a clean bowl and chill custard, its surface covered with parchment paper (to prevent a skin from forming), until cold, at least 1 hour. Discard zest.
• Pulse ricotta in a food processor until smooth. Whisk into custard. Stir in orange-flower water and citron. Chill until ready to use.
• Prepare pastry while custard chills:
• Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in cleaned food processor until combined. Add butter and zest and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with some roughly pea-size butter lumps. Add yolks and water and pulse until just incorporated and dough begins to form large clumps.
• Turn out dough onto a work surface and divide into 4 portions. With heel of your hand, smear each portion once or twice in a forward motion to help distribute fat. Gather dough together, using a pastry or bench scraper if you have one, and form into a ball.
• Generously butter muffin cups and top of pan. Press 2 tablespoon dough over bottom and up side of each muffin cup in an even layer with well-floured fingers. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roll out remaining dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper into a 9-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick) and transfer to a baking sheet, discarding top sheet of paper. Cut 12 (1/2-inch-wide) strips, then cut in half crosswise to make 24 strips total. Chill until ready to use.
• Assemble and Bake pastries:
• Spoon a scant 2 tablespoons filling into each muffin cup and smooth, then crisscross 2 strips on top of filling, trimming to fit. Brush pastry cross with egg wash. Bake until filling is puffed and starting to crack and edges are golden, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Cool in pan on a rack 10 minutes. Invert a rack on top of pan, then flip pan and remove. Turn pastries right side up and cool completely.

WHITE PEACHES, PISTACHIOS, HONEY AND RICOTTA

Steps:

• Quarter and pit the peaches, and slice them into thin curls on a mandoline. Toss them with the lemon juice in a bowl.
• Divide the ricotta among 4 dessert bowls, drizzle a tablespoon of honey on each, and toss on a handful of toasted pistachios. Top each with a mound of peach slices and a drizzle of olive oil.
