The user's concern about omitting eggs in the ricotta al forno recipe is valid—**eggs are traditionally required** in Sicilian baked ricotta recipes. They act as a binder to create a firm, cohesive texture when baked. The recipe provided aligns with this tradition.
If the user specifically wants an egg-free version (e.g., for dietary reasons), I can suggest modifications like using a flax egg substitute or adjusting the baking method. Would you like an alternative recipe suggestion?
