Instructions

    Preheat oven to 200°C and grease the muffin tin well, then dust with flour. In a bowl whisk together egg and oil, then stir in ricotta.

Carefully fold in 150 g frozen raspberries, pour batter into cups, and bake for about 20 minutes at 200°C (top/bottom heat) until a toothpick comes out clean. Remove, let cool slightly, then carefully loosen edges, lift muffins from cups, and cool on a wire rack.
