Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.25 cups Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 cups Fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground black pepper.
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, whole milk, and olive oil until well combined. Stir in the minced garlic.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and finely chopped green onions, ensuring they are evenly distributed in the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly browned on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
