Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Fresh spinach
- 0.5 cup Grated carrot
- 0.5 cup Chopped bell pepper
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Shredded low-fat cheese
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Fold in the spinach, grated carrot, chopped bell pepper, and green onions into the flour mixture.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg lightly with the buttermilk and olive oil until smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring just until combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the shredded low-fat cheese and black pepper into the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 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 allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
