The combination of lemon and ricotta works magic in this cake and creates a lovely soft and light texture in this cake..I really enjoy it so much.
You can easily make this cake as orange cake, instead of lemon zest,add orange juice for lemon juice.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Hey aarthi love all ur recipes, can I use self raising flour for this recipe?
Not sure about that.
Hi aarthi really love all ur recipes, I have a query here can v use self raising flour instead of maida?…pls advise
I’ve tried the French Apple cake 3 times now and it was a big WOW by my guests. I don”k know what Maida flour is but I use Robin Hood flour also I used a springform pan and it was easy to remove from pan. i also made a butterscotch sauce with it. it was delicious. 1 tbs. cornstarch, 1 cup brown sugar, 2 tbs butter. 1 1/4 cup of boiling water/
over medium heat add butter and sugar a then add cornstarch stir then add boiling water stir until it thickens. i add 1/4 cup of rum it’s optional. when serving put some sauce over it. Mmm yummy!
