Lemon Pangrattato Pasta Recipe
Everyone loves pasta, but if you’d like to amp up this humble favourite, try our Pangrattato Pasta recipe – you won’t regret it. Made on your choice of pasta, we’ve created a sauce that’s simple to prepare, but will wow you at the dinner table. Combining butter, garlic, lemon, and ricotta, the result is a creamy, tangy, and rich sauce that would be great on its own.
We didn’t want to stop there though! After all, it wouldn’t be a true lemon Pangrattato without the delicious texture of bread crumbs, made with our signature Bakers Delight Hi-Fibre Lo-Gi Block Loaf. Fried and flavoured with garlic, lemon, salt, pepper, and a hint of parsley for added freshness, it’s like nothing you’ve had before. If you’ve never made Pangrattato, you’ll want to give this one a try.

Step 1
Cut off two thick slices from the Bakers Delight Hi-Fibre Lo-Gi Block Loaf and leave on the counter top over night to go hard and “stale” like. Cut the crusty bread into quarters and place in a food processor or blender until breadcrumbs form. To make your pangrattato, pour the breadcrumbs into a nonstick pan on a medium to high heat. Grate one clove of garlic, half a lemon zest, pepper, salt and half the parsley into the breadcrumbs and stir for approx 5 minutes or until breadcrumbs have browned.
