Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.25 cups olive oil
- 1 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cups chopped spinach
- 0.5 cups diced bell peppers
- 0.5 cups diced cooked bacon or sausage
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then stir in the milk and olive oil until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped spinach, diced bell peppers, and cooked bacon or sausage until evenly distributed.
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds before eating.
