Baked Ricotta Custard

Creamy custard that tastes just like rice pudding - without the rice.

Ingredients

Directions

  2. In large bowl, with an electric mixer at medium speed, beat ricotta and cream cheese until creamy. Add sugar substitute and beat until well combined. Add egg, egg white, half & half, and vanilla; beat until well blended.
  3. Transfer mixture to 4 (8 oz) ramekins. Place ramekins in a baking dish. Add hot water to baking dish to a depth of 1 inch. Bake until custards are set, about 45 minutes. Remove from water bath and cool on rack.

Thank you, thank you thank you! Finally, a great low carb dessert! I did end up having to bake at 375* for about an hour for it to set- that was the only alteration to the recipe that I made.

To make it more Atkins OWL, I'm subbing the high fat versions of cream cheese and heavy whipping cream for the low fat ingredients and adding finely chopped spaghetti squash to try to get that "rice" mouth feel. Get a few veggie carbs that way also.

Wonderful dessert. After reading it tastes like rige pudding I decided to put in raisins as well. Then I got to thinking fresh strawberries on top or maybe blueberries inside would also be tasty. The possibilities are endless. One thing I would change if I wasnt adding fruit is maybe a little less sweetness. Thank you for the recipe. I will use it again and again.

Had this at room temp and it was ok....maybe it will be better cold. I think I'll make it again but next time I'll beat the egg whites separately and fold in the cheeses and egg yolk. Also want to try it with agave.

Tastes great and hits that sweet craving. Don't be afraid to try it with other extract flavors other than vanilla. For example, almond extract, orange, and lemon extracts are all great.

Ok now I have changed my mind. I don't like this dish hot. However, I love it cold. It was absolutely delish.

I made this with heavy cream, regular cream cheese and whole milk ricotta to reduce the carbs. It was delish !!!
