Yield 1 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large eggs
3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 lb ricotta cheese
1 lemon, rind of, grated
1 1/2 teaspoons flour
cooking spray
1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted
confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F

  • Pour the cheese mixture into the foil liners.
  • Place the muffin pan on a rimmed baking sheet, transfer to the oven and pour about 1 1/2 cups water onto the baking sheet to make a water bath.
  • Bake until the cheesecake centers are just set, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the muffin pan from the baking sheet, then top the cheesecakes with the pine nuts, patting gently to adhere.
  • Let cool for about 30 minutes, then dust with confectioners' sugar.
