Egg, Ricotta, and Spinach Tart

Serving Size: 4 to 6 as a brunch dish

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons Filippo Berio Extra Virgin Olive Oil or Filippo Berio Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs
  • 3/4 cup (3 ounces) grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 1 bag (6 ounces) washed baby spinach leaves, stems removed
  • 1 carton (32 ounces) whole milk or part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Cooking Instructions

  1. Use 1/2 tablespoon of oil to rub over the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a 10-inch springform pan. Dust the pan with the bread crumbs. Shake excess crumbs into a small bowl; add 1 tablespoon of the oil and 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan. Toss with a fork; set aside.
  2. Heat the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the spinach. Cover and cook over high heat for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it wilts. Drain any liquid. Set aside.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a bowl, beat the ricotta, 2 of the eggs, salt, nutmeg, and the remaining Parmesan. Spoon into the pan. Top with the spinach mixture. With the back of a tablespoon, make 4 oval indentations, radiating from the center like flower petals, in the ricotta mixture. Break 1 egg into each indentation. Sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture.
  4. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until set. Remove tart to a rack to cool for at least 30 minutes before removing sides of pan. With a serrated knife, cut into wedges.
