Method:

1. Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
2. In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, olive oil, and milk until well combined.
4. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the cheddar cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and crumbled feta cheese. Season with black pepper.
6. Evenly distribute the batter into the muffin tin.
7. Pop the muffin tin into the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
8. Allow the muffins to cool slightly in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

1. These muffins are highly customizable. Feel free to toss in some diced bell peppers, olives, or even some crumbled bacon if you’re feeling adventurous.
2. Ensure not to overmix the batter; this ensures your muffins remain fluffy and soft.
3. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container. They should remain fresh for up to 3 days.
4. You can also freeze these muffins and simply reheat in the oven when ready to consume.

Serving Suggestions:

• Warm up these savoury muffins and serve with a dollop of butter or a drizzle of olive oil for an extra layer of richness.
• These muffins pair wonderfully with a fresh fruit salad or a side of yogurt.
• Consider serving alongside a hot cappuccino or freshly squeezed orange juice for a balanced breakfast.
• If you’re up for it, slicing one open and filling it with scrambled eggs or smoked salmon can make a more hearty meal.
