Healthy, flavorful, and beautifully rustic, Spinach Feta Muffins are a must-try recipe for any cheese-and-herb enthusiast.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground black pepper.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and olive oil until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and green onions using a spatula, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
