Description
Delicious Savory Pumpkin & Feta Muffins that are perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, black pepper, and oregano until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the pumpkin puree, crumbled feta cheese, olive oil, eggs, and milk until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If using, fold in the chopped parsley.
- Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For added flavor, mix in 1/2 cup of chopped sun-dried tomatoes or olives.
- Substitute the feta cheese with goat cheese for a different taste profile.
