Ingredients

Servings 12
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/4 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease each cup.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and black pepper until combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add Greek yogurt and olive oil, stirring until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep muffins tender.
  5. Fold in chopped fresh spinach and crumbled feta cheese evenly.
  6. Divide batter into muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
  9. Enjoy fresh, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze for longer storage.
