I just made these Savory Muffins with Spinach, Roasted Peppers & Feta Cheese … from a recipe I found on FB … they are delicious! Here’s the link to the recipehttp://pamelasalzman.com/savory-muffins-with-spinach-roasted-peppers-and-feta-recipe/ Also it is posted below the photo
makes 12 standard muffins
2 ¾ cups whole wheat pastry flour or all-purpose flour (or a combo)*
2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
1 teaspoon paprika
¾ teaspoon sea salt
pinch of cayenne pepper
¾ cup whole milk or unsweetened plain, hemp milk
½ cup unrefined olive oil
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
2 large eggs
1 cup thinly sliced spinach leaves
¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
½ cup chopped roasted red peppers or drained mild Peppadew peppers
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 12 standard muffin cups with unbleached parchment paper liners (or cut parchment paper squares to fit.)
- Whisk flour, baking powder, paprika, salt and cayenne in a medium bowl.
- Whisk milk, oil, maple syrup and eggs in a large bowl and combine well.
- Add dry mixture to wet and stir until just combined. Fold in spinach, feta and peppers.
- Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups. I use a large ice cream scoop to do this.
- Bake muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Cool 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire cooling rack or eat warm. Best eaten the same day that they’re made.
