spinach, feta, & cheddar muffins.

yum!

these are pretty darn good, my friends.  i am loving the savory sweets trend.  these are fully savory in taste but are in an adorably sweet appearing muffin package.  & it's just fun to get out a cutting board & chop up an onion in the kitchen at work.

oh, & you have to love a recipe in grams & milliliters every once in awhile.

spinach, feta, & cheddar muffins

found on: pinterest.

originally from: i like ginger biscuits.

300g ap flour

2 1/2 tsp baking powder

100g cheddar cheese

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp cayenne

30g butter

half red onion, chopped

150g feta, chopped

130g spinach, chopped

220ml buttermilk

1 egg

1. combine the flour, baking powder, cheddar, salt, & cayenne in a bowl.

2. melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.  add the onions & cook until tender.  this is a good time to season with a little salt & pepper.  turn the heat down to low.  add the feta & spinach and cook until the spinach is beautifully wilted.  

{it takes a lot of self control not to eat this entire pan right now}

3. toss the spinach mixture into your dry ingredients.  stir a little bit.  

4. combine the buttermilk & egg in a small bowl & whisk a little.  throw that on into your mixture too.  stir until combined.

{it's going to be so good.}

5. portion out the batter into muffin tins.  1/4 cup for the normal size muffin tins.  1/2 cup for the jumbo ones.  sprinkle each with a little cheddar.

{these are going to be so pretty too!}

6. bake at 350 for about 15 minutes for normal muffins or 30 minutes for the jumbo.  you want the top to be golden.  & do the whole toothpick thing, as they take a little longer to cook than usually expected.

yum!  enjoy, friends!

love love,
