Cheesy Spinach Ricotta Ring

Introduction

This Cheesy Spinach Ricotta Ring is a flourless, high-protein dish that’s both comforting and impressive. Made with simple ingredients and baked or gently cooked until perfectly set, it’s ideal for breakfast, brunch, or a light meal. The melty cheese lining creates a golden crust, while the ricotta and spinach filling stays creamy and flavorful.

Ingredients

• Sliced melting cheese (enough to line the pan)

• 1 bunch spinach, cooked and squeezed completely dry

• 2 cups ricotta cheese

• 3 large eggs

• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for topping

• Pinch of salt

• Pinch of black pepper

• A small pinch of garlic powder

Instructions

1. Grease a 9.5-inch ring or bundt pan well. Line the bottom and sides with sliced cheese, making sure there are no gaps.

2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, ricotta, eggs, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well blended.

3. Pour the mixture into the cheese-lined pan and smooth the top evenly.

4. Sprinkle a little extra Parmesan cheese over the surface.

5. Cook either:

   • On the stovetop: Place the pan inside a snug pot, cover, and cook on low-medium heat for about 20 minutes.

   • In the oven: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25–30 minutes, or until fully set.

6. Let the ring rest for 5 minutes. Carefully invert onto a plate, lift off the pan, and slice.

Conclusion

This Cheesy Spinach Ricotta Ring is rich, satisfying, and surprisingly simple to make. Enjoy it warm right out of the pan, or chill and reheat later for an easy, protein-packed meal. Perfect for meal prep, brunch spreads, or anytime you want something cheesy and wholesome.
