Ingredients
- 1 cup (8 ounces) whole milk ricotta cheese
- 1 cup (8 ounces) cream cheese
- 1 cup (8 ounces) goat cheese
-
1 ¼ teaspoons lemon oregano salt, or kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ cup and 2 tablespoons apricot jam, divided
-
1 tablespoon Calabrian chili paste (or more, for desired heat level)
- Pita chips, crackers and vegetables, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 415 degrees F.
- Place the ricotta, cream cheese, goat cheese, salt and paprika in a food processor, or in a bowl with an electric mixer. Pulse to mix. Add 2 tablespoons of apricot jam and Calabrian chili paste, and pulse a few times until well mixed. Spoon the cheese mixture into a medium, shallow ceramic baking dish. If making ahead of time, cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Otherwise, continue to bake.
- Bake in the oven until golden brown and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to slightly cool for 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully spoon the remaining 1/4 cup apricot jam over the dip and spread to cover the top. Serve warm with pita chips, crackers or vegetables.
