Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder optional
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened plant-based milk or regular milk
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled (vegan feta for a vegan version)
  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil or oregano optional

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a muffin tin or line with muffin liners.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using).

Mix the Wet Ingredients

  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, olive oil, and eggs until smooth.

Combine the Wet and Dry Ingredients

  • Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix to ensure fluffy muffins.

Add the Fillings

  • Fold in the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, sun-dried tomatoes, and optional fresh herbs.

Fill the Muffin Tin

  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Bake

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Cool and Serve

  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to 1 month.
  • If you prefer a more intense sun-dried tomato flavor, you can use oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes for an extra richness.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
🌿 Tip: These muffins pair wonderfully with a side of hummus or a light salad for a complete meal!
