Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 6 muffins
Cuisine: Mediterranean
Course: Breakfast or Snack
Calories: ~180 per muffin

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup (125 g) natural yogurt
  • 1 medium potato, sliced and fried or baked
  • 1/4 cup (40 g) green olives, pitted and chopped
  • 2 oz (50 g) mortadella, diced
  • 1 oz (30 g) mozzarella cheese, diced or shredded
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder (approximately 4 g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and yogurt until smooth.
  3. Add the flour and baking powder to the egg mixture, stirring well to combine. It should be a thick but smooth batter.
  4. Gently fold in the sliced potato, chopped olives, diced mortadella, mozzarella cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper until everything is well coated and evenly distributed.
  5. Spoon the mixture into muffin molds, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these savory delights warm!

Recipe Notes

  • Make sure to pat the fried or baked potato slices dry if they are greasy to avoid soggy muffins.
  • You can play with the textures by adding different cheeses, like feta or cheddar, for a twist on flavor.
  • If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a splash of milk or water to loosen it up a bit.
  • An added sprinkle of cheese on top of the batter before baking gives a nice golden crust.
