Instructions

Preheat oven at 375 F (190 C).
In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, paprika, and salt)
In another bowl mix the olive oil, eggs, milk.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix just until blended with a wooden spoon. The dough will be thick.
Add the feta, spinach and peppers and mix gently until all ingredients are spread throughout the whole mixture.
Divide mixture in muffin pan that you have lined with muffin/cupcake liners or you can use a silicon muffin tray and grease it with a bit of olive oil (I have used it here). You should have enough for 12 medium muffins.
Bake for about 25 minutes. Remove when toothpick comes out clear when inserted in the muffin.
Let them cool for 10 minutes and remove from tray. Let them cool a couple of hours before serving.
