Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Olive oil
• 3 large Eggs
• 1 cup Buttermilk
• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
• 0.5 cup Carrot, grated
• 0.75 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Green onions, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing or lining it with paper muffin cups.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the olive oil, eggs, and buttermilk. Whisk until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped spinach, diced red bell pepper, grated carrot, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Stir until the vegetables and cheese are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Evenly distribute the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the muffins to 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. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
