HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED:

You only need a handful of simple ingredients to make these ricotta and fruit waffles.

  • Galbani® Whole Milk Ricotta
  • Almond Extract or Vanilla Extract
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Vanilla Waffles
  • Variety of Fresh Fruits
  • Drizzles, Syrups & Lemon Zest

First we need to prepare the sweetened ricotta. Then, add the fruity toppings and drizzles. Scroll to recipe card for exact measurements and instructions. We will be mixing a 15 oz container of Galbani® Whole Milk Ricotta with powdered sugar and almond extract which is my favorite or vanilla extract if you prefer it. Both will be perfectly delish.

DARK CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY RICOTTA WAFFLES

This is one of my favorite flavor combos and it's extra yummy paired with the perfectly sweetened ricotta. You need sliced strawberries and dark chocolate chips to top the ricotta to make these.

Blueberry Banana Honey Ricotta Waffles

This delicious pairing really pops with drizzles of honey. Use a small heart cutter to make the bananas extra cute if you like. To prepare these, you simply need banana slices, fresh blueberries and honey of course.
