Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.75 cups Milk
• 0.25 cups Olive oil
• 1 cups Button mushrooms
• 0.75 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.33 cups Fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk and olive oil until well combined.

Step 4

In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the mushrooms with the minced garlic for 3-4 minutes until softened and slightly golden. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour the wet mixture into the well and gently stir until just combined.

Step 6

Fold the sautéed mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, and chopped basil into the batter. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve warm, or store in an airtight container for up to three days.
