About this recipe
Savory spinach and feta muffins are a filling snack made with eggs, milk, flour, oil, and a simple baking powder batter. The spinach adds moisture and a mild vegetable flavor, while the feta brings a salty note that makes them more distinctive than classic plain muffins. Mix the batter briefly, just until combined, so the muffins stay soft after baking. This recipe works well for savory lunchbox muffins, a snack during the day, or a small addition to a simple meal.
Ingredients
Servings: 8
2 eggs
150 g all-purpose flour
120 ml milk
100 g spinach
60 g feta cheese
40 ml oil
1 teaspoon baking powder
Steps
Preheat a conventional oven (no fan) to 180°C, position a rack in the middle, and prepare a muffin pan with 8 wells. Coarsely chop the spinach.
Place the spinach in a dry skillet and heat over medium heat for 2–3 minutes, until wilted. Let cool, squeeze out very thoroughly, and chop again.
Whisk the eggs with the milk and oil. In a separate bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder, then add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix briefly.
Gently fold in the squeezed spinach and crumbled feta, then divide the batter among the 8 muffin cups.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the muffins have risen, the tops spring back, and a toothpick inserted into a part without feta comes out dry. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
