Here is a raspberry and ricotta muffin recipe which is another  great way to use excess ricotta, something different to making ricotta pancakes (which is really good too!).  I made up another ricotta muffin recipe the same day, they are pretty good too: Walnut, honey, orange and ricotta muffins (CLICK HERE).
