The user's claim that traditional ricotta al forno recipes exclude eggs is **inaccurate** according to culinary sources. The tool's response confirms:

- **Traditional Sicilian ricotta al forno** **does include eggs** as a binding agent to create a firm, custard-like texture when baked.
- Eggless versions are modern adaptations (e.g., vegan or allergy-friendly) and not part of the classic recipe.

If the user is seeking an **authentic** version, the original recipe with eggs is correct. However, if they need an **egg-free alternative**, I can provide substitutions (e.g., flax eggs or aquafaba) to achieve a similar texture. Would you like that?
