Method

0 of 10 done
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan) or gas mark 4. Lightly grease a muffin tin or line it with a muffin case.
  2. Roughly chop the fresh spinach and set aside. Finely chop the spring onion and garlic. Cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters.
  3. In a frying pan over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the garlic and saute for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the chopped spinach to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  5. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg, egg whites, and milk. Add the baking powder, salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Mix well.
  6. Fold the cooked spinach mix into the egg mixture. Stir in the chopped spring onion, cherry tomatoes, and grated cheddar cheese until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the mixture into the prepared muffin tin or case, filling it about three-quarters full.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the muffin has risen, is golden, and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffin to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your homemade egg muffin with spinach and cheese!
