Crust Preparation

1. Make the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well.

2. Incorporate Butter

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

3. Add Ice Water

Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough holds together. Do not overmix.

4. Chill the Dough

Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

5. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

6. Mix Filling Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, eggs, and lemon zest. Mix until smooth and well combined.

7. Add Heavy Cream

Gently fold in the heavy cream until the mixture is creamy and smooth.

Assembling and Baking

8. Roll Out the Dough

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.

9. Add Filling

Pour the ricotta filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

10. Bake

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden on top.

11. Cool

Remove from the oven and let cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.

Serving

Before serving, wash the fresh berries and mint leaves. Pat dry.
