Method
 

How to Make Egg Muffins with Spinach and Feta
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), ensuring it’s hot enough to give your muffins that perfect rise.

  2. In a large bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together until well combined. This will create a light and fluffy texture in every bite.

  3. Stir in fresh spinach, crumbled feta cheese, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix until the spinach is evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.

  4. Lightly grease a muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray. This will prevent sticking and make sure your muffins come out easily.

  5. Evenly distribute the egg mixture into the muffin tin cups, filling each one about ¾ full. This allows room for the muffins to puff up while baking.

  6. Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes until the muffins are set and slightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.
