About this recipe
This recipe adapts the classic Greek 'Spanakopita' to the portable muffin format.
It is a perfect example of 'smart food': we replace refined flour with oats (complex carbohydrate) and increase protein using Greek yogurt in the dough.
The result is a dense, moist bite full of Mediterranean flavor that works equally well as a powerful breakfast or light dinner.
