Ricotta Bread
"This moist, slightly sweet bread is one of my favorites to prepare in my bread machine," says Jenet Cattar of Neptune Beach, Florida. Jenet's recipe produces a smaller loaf, which is especially nice for households with one or two people.

This recipe is wonderful..my loaf of bread turned out deliciously tender...it was perfect...I added Italian herbs and garlic powder , it is great with our Italian dinner...this recipe is a definite keeper.
To Carol1229 did you allow ricotta bread to rise before baking bread or just mix and bake?
We loved this bread-it's so nice and soft...perfectly wonderful warm from the oven or toasted for breakfast. I used part-skim ricotta, instant yeast and made it by hand rather than using a bread machine. It makes (1) 8x4-inch loaf of bread. Since it makes a pretty small loaf, I think I'll double the ingredients to make a larger loaf and either a mini loaf or dinner rolls the next time I make it-and yes, there definitely will be a next time.Thank you, Jenet for this wonderful recipe!
This is wonderful bread. Makes great toast. Good with turkey sandwiches. I think I am going to make it again and try a little wheat flour as this is so moist, I think it can take it. Not sure it it matters what fat content the ricotta is though. Guess I will get to experiment! Yum!!
This was good and I may make it again. It was nice to take a break from making bread the regular way.
