Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
- Make the batter: In a large bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pepper, and sugar. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and butter.
- Add the turkey, onion, bell pepper, sun-dried tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, spinach, basil and Italian seasoning to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
- Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and fold to combine, being careful not to overmix the batter.
- Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter between the muffin cups, filling almost completely.
- Bake for 18 minutes, rotating the muffin tin halfway through baking, until browned on top and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let cool for 10 minutes before removing the muffins from the tin. Serve or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Enjoy!
