--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2                     eggs
    1 1/4           cups  sugar
    1              stick  unsalted butter -- At Room Temperature
       1/2           cup  Ricotta Cheese
    1           teaspoon  vanilla
    3              whole  lemons -- zest only
       1/2           cup  buttermilk
    1 3/4           cups  All-purpose Flour
    2          teaspoons  Baking Powder
       1/2      teaspoon  salt
    1                cup  blueberries
                          Powdered Sugar -- For Dusting, (optional)

Add the eggs and sugar to a large bowl and beat until thoroughly 
combined and lightened in color. Beat in the butter followed by the 
ricotta cheese, vanilla, lemon zest and buttermilk.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Beat 
the dry ingredients into the wet until mixed. Fold in the blueberries 
and mix by hand just until combined.

Pour the batter into a buttered and floured loaf pan and bake in a 
preheated 350F oven for 1 hour or until a cake tester comes out 
clean. Allow to cool before removing from the pan and dust with 
powdered sugar, if desired.
