- 1 (12 ounce) can fully cooked luncheon meat (such as SPAM®), chopped
- 1 1/2 cups whole wheat all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh spinach
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 5 basil leaves, chopped
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir luncheon meat until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, garlic powder, pepper, and paprika together in a bowl. Mix luncheon meat, milk, Cheddar cheese, butter, spinach, egg, onion, and basil together in a separate bowl; slowly stir into flour mixture just until batter is mixed. Pour batter into muffin cups until each is 3/4-full.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 33 minutes.
