Ricotta Gnocchi

Simple, quick ricotta gnocchi recipe from scratch.
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ricotta cheese
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese
  • 2 ½ cups flour

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ricotta, eggs, parmesan, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the flour and knead until a soft, pillowy dough forms. If the dough is sticky, keep adding flour little by little until it isn't sticky anymore.
  • Let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Flour your work surface and cut off a section of your dough ball. When I start this part of the recipe, it's also when I usually start boiling my water as well.
  • Roll it into a long log and cut it into sections that are about an inch thick. If you're confused at all about the process, there are a handful of Youtube videos showing the proess!
  • Boil until they float to the top or for 3 minutes.
