• 2 cups of flour
• 1 cup of finely chopped kale

• 1 cup of milk (alternatively, almond milk for a dairy-free option)

• 1 small onion, finely chopped

Instructions

The creation of these marvelous muffins is almost as pleasurable as devouring them! Just follow these easy steps:

3. Mix in the finely chopped kale. Let the gorgeous hues of green and gold mingle together.
4. In another bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the milk and melted butter. This rich trio brings a delightful moistness to our muffins.
5. Season with the minced garlic, finely chopped onion, salt, and pepper, stirring to distribute the flavors evenly.
6. Pour the dry mixture into the wet one and stir just until combined; overmixing may lead to tough muffins.
