Soft and moist, this is an excellent all purpose biscuit to serve with soup for a filling lunch. I whipped these up in less than an hour, including prep and cleanup time. I served the biscuits with
miso soup with wild mushrooms for a delectable dinner that in no way betrayed the short time I spent preparing it.

Ingredients:
- 2 cups unbleached white flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup plain yogurt
Instructions:
Preheat an oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and parsley. Make a well in the center of the ingredients. Beat the egg until frothy in a small bowl. Now beat in the ricotta cheese. Stir in the olive oil and yogurt. Pour into the dried ingredients and stir until you have a soft dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board and gently knead 8 to 10 times. Shape the dough into round 2-inch biscuits about 1-inch thick and arrange on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for a few minutes and serve warm.

I have just made these, and they are delicious. I did not have any yogurt on hand, so I substituted buttermilk. Ricotta adds nice softness to these biscuits and it takes so little time to make. Thanks for the recipe.
just made these ricotta cheese biscuits, had them with homemade chili, they were great, very light and fluffy
Terrific! Substituted grapeseed oil for olive oil to give them a bit lighter flavor. Thank you!!
I had some ricotta to use up so I made these tonight to go with some soup I'd made. They were a great addition to dinner! I ran out of ricotta so I subbed some sour cream--about 1/3 c to make up for missing ricotta. Nice recipe! I find a lot of biscuit recipes have too much liquid added but these were spot on! Thanks for sharing!
I made these a couple of weeks ago and they were absolutely delicious! Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!
Have made them twice now to use up left over ricotta. They are very tasty. Since I'm not a fan of parsley, I've used chives instead. Great recipe!!
