I was in a ‘salty baking’ mood today, which resulted in
spinach & cheese muffins
To begin, I sauteed 1/3 red onion in a few tbsp of butter
While the onions were cooking, I combined
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tbsp baking powder
a pinch of cumin & paprika
salt & pepper
In a separate bowl:
1 1/4 cup milk
1 beaten egg
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
handful of chopped spinach
After the onions were done, I added 1/4 cup butter to melt in the pan, then poured the buttery onions into the wet ingredient bowl.
Combine flour mixture with the wet, scoop into a muffin tin and bake at 350 for approx 20 mins.
They’re so good it hurts. Court and I each ate a couple.. I hope we don’t ruin our dinner appetites… Alaskan King crab is on tonights menu!
Thank you! Had some thawed spinach that we had forgotten to put in canneloni last night and trying to figure out what to do with it in a healthy baking way. Just googled "whole wheat spinach cheese muffins" and this came up! So simple and so yummy.
looks so good! Delicious!
