Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (chopped)
• 1 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
• 3 stalks Scallions (finely sliced)
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and chopped rosemary until evenly combined.

Step 3

Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese and sliced scallions, ensuring they are evenly dispersed throughout the dry ingredients.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture in. Using a spatula, mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 6

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days. Reheat briefly in the oven or microwave for best results.
