Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 cup Chopped bell peppers (any color)
- 0.5 cup Chopped cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Sliced black olives
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh basil
- Pizza sauce (for serving, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, dried oregano, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and olive oil until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, black olives, and fresh basil.
Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, 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 a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature with pizza sauce on the side for dipping, if desired.
