Ingredients
Method
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and spray a 12-cup muffin tin with olive oil spray.
- In a large bowl, mix all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, cumin, and oregano to combine.
- Stir in cooked turkey sausage and crumbled mozzarella cheese into the flour mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together beaten eggs and low-fat milk.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry, mixing until just combined. Fold in the diced bell pepper and sautéed spinach.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool slightly before removing from the tin and serving warm.
Notes
Substitute whole-wheat flour for a fiber-rich version.
Use almond milk for a dairy-free rendition.
Optional: Replace mozzarella with cheddar for a stronger cheese flavor.
Ensure the turkey sausage is fully cooked before mixing to prevent undercooked meat spots.
