Easy, delicious raspberry ricotta cake!

1. Heat the over to 180 degrees.  Preheat oven to 180 degrees celsius.
2. Grease your choice of a springform pan or a line a glass pyrex (my preference but perhaps not as pretty).
3. Sift the flour, salt and baking powder to combine
4. Add the sugar and mix dry ingredients together in a bowl.
5. In another bowl, mix the ricotta cheese, vanilla, eggs and butter.
6. In stages, combine the wet and dry ingredients from both bowls.
7. Then add most of the raspberries to the mixture, but dont mix too roughly – we don’t want to crush them.  (Keep a few raspberries for the top)
8. Pour the mixture into the cake tin or pyrex and poke the other raspberries into the top of the cake so you can see them just sticking up.
9. Bake for 50-55 minutes – check for finished with a skewer test.
10. Cool in the pan then remove.
11. To make it look pretty before serving, dust with icing sugar or if you choose you can serve with a berry coulis by blending some raspberries with several tablespoons of boiled water
