Ingredients

1 tablespoon oil
2 spring onions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
40 leaves fresh spinach, chopped
300 g flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
170 g cornflour
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 egg, beaten
310 ml milk
6 tablespoons olive oil
250 g chickpeas (if using canned rinse them under water)
8 teaspoons cornflour
2 tablespoons cheese, grated (I used gouda)

Steps:

Heat the 1 tbs oil in a frying pan. Add in spring onion and garlic. Sautee until lightly browned. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Set aside.
In a big bowl combine flour, cornflour, baking powder and salt.
Add in the chopped parsley.
In a second bowl combine milk, oil and the egg. Add to the dry ingredients. Stir just a little.
Add in the spinach mixture and the chickpeas. Stir to combine making sure not to overmix. The dough will be rather stiff.
Fill dough into prepared muffin tins and sprinkle each muffin with 1/2 ts cornflour and a little cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven at 190°C/375°F for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean.
Enjoy!

Tips:

Make sure to use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
If you don't have chickpea flour, you can make your own by grinding dried chickpeas in a food processor or high-powered blender until a fine powder forms.
Using baking soda and apple cider vinegar creates a natural leavening agent, resulting in fluffy and light muffins.
Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in tough muffins.
Fill the muffin cups only 3/4 full, as the muffins will rise during baking.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool completely before serving or storing.
