Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 unit Egg, large
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and ground nutmeg.
In a medium bowl, combine the milk, melted butter, and egg. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
Fold in the minced garlic, chopped spinach, grated Parmesan cheese, and ground black pepper until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Using a small spoon or cookie scoop, evenly fill the mini muffin tin with the batter, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
