Baked Ricotta Dip

By Dustin

Ingredients

• 2 Cups ricotta cheese
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 sprig rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 lemon, zest only
• 3 Tablespoons olive oil (plus a bit for finishing)
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes
• 1 pinch salt and pepper
• 1 baguette, sliced and toasted
• Butter, for baking dish

Preparation

Step 1

Add the ricotta to a large bowl and stir in the minced herbs, crushed red pepper, and lemon zest. Stir this all together really well and scoop it into a small buttered baking dish.

Bake this dip at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. The dip should be lightly browned on top and very hot.

When the dip comes out of the oven, sprinkle it with some extra rosemary and drizzle on a bit of olive oil.

Serve with sliced up lightly toasted sturdy baguette bread.
