Como fazer Maria's Easter Wheat Pie Pastiera Di Grano

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch springform pan.
In a large bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine the cooked wheat berries, candied orange peel, and orange flower water. Mix gently.
Gently fold the wheat mixture into the ricotta mixture until well combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
