- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons kosher salt
directions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees (165 degrees celsius). Coat a rectangular pan with butter, 3x6 or other.
- In a mixer,electric or non (electric works best), cream together butter and ricotta cheese. Pour in sugar/splenda and mix until smooth. Add in eggs, one at a time, mixing well until each is incorporated. Mix in vanilla and almond extracts.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly add flour mixture to the wet ingredients.
- Fold the blueberries into the batter, gently as to not crush the berries.
- Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Cook for an additional 50-75 minutes until the center is set and a chopstick/toothpick comes out clean.
- Serve either immediately or cold.
