Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Olive oil
• 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
• 0.5 cups Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
• 1 cup Fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Whisk to mix evenly.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and olive oil until well blended.

Step 4

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon. Do not overmix; stir just until combined.

Step 5

Fold in the feta cheese, chopped Kalamata olives, spinach, and minced garlic. Ensure the mixture is evenly distributed but do not overmix.

Step 6

Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-22 minutes, or until the muffins are golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
