  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 piece large egg white room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 0.25 cup pistachios chopped, lightly toasted

Instructions
 

Main

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 piece large egg white, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Drop heaping spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart, and gently flatten each with wet fingertips.
  • Sprinkle the chopped pistachios evenly over the tops and bake for 12–15 minutes, rotating the tray halfway through, until edges are golden brown.
    1 pinch sea salt
  • Allow the bites to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Drain ricotta for 30 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Chill the mixture for 10 minutes before scooping to maintain shape.
Toast pistachios to enhance their nutty flavor.
