# What You'll Need:
→ Gnocchi
01 - 1 cup ricotta cheese, drained if excess liquid
02 - 1 large egg
03 - 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
04 - 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
05 - 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
→ Cinnamon Sugar Coating
06 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
07 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
08 - 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
09 - Pinch of salt
# Method:
01 - Combine ricotta cheese, egg, all-purpose flour, Parmesan cheese, and sea salt in a mixing bowl. Stir gently until a soft, slightly sticky dough develops.
02 - Lightly dust a work surface with flour. Divide dough into four even portions. Roll each portion into a rope approximately 1/2 inch thick, then cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Optionally, roll each piece over the tines of a fork to create traditional ridges.
03 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Add the gnocchi batches and cook until the pieces float to the surface, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain thoroughly.
04 - Melt unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add drained gnocchi and sauté until golden on the edges, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
05 - Mix granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle mixture over gnocchi in the skillet and toss to coat, warming gently until the sugar forms a light glaze.
06 - Enjoy warm. Optionally, dust with additional cinnamon sugar or serve with a dollop of whipped cream.
