Spinach paneer muffins

We wanted to make a higher fiber breakfast with spinach for baby and we found this recipe and modified it substituting chicken with paneer and adding a few more things. It was a hit ! Baby ate the muffins and loved the paneer in it. Eventhough we made this for baby , we loved these muffins too!! 

Ingredients:

Frozen spinach ( thawed)- 5 oz ( get an 8 oz package)

Can of creamed corn- 1

Eggs- 5

Butter (melted) - 1/2 cup

All purpose flour - 1 cup

Oatmeal ( grind into a powder) - 1 cup

Thawed paneer cubes - 1 package ( 8 oz)- cut into small pieces 

Small onion - 1/2-  cut into small pieces - Sautéed until translucent 

Shredded cheddar cheese - 2 cups

2. Grease the muffin pans ( we used a silicone pan) and set aside 

3. In a large bowl add 1/4 can of the creamed corn, butter, eggs, paneer, sautéed onions, and 1.5 cups of shredded cheese and mix

4. Place the rest of the corn and thawed spinach in a blender and blend until it is a smooth mixture 

5. In another large bowl combine the dry ingredients: the flour, oatmeal powder, baking powder, flax, chia  and salt

6. Now take the wet ingredient from steps 4 and 5 and mix it in with the dry ingredients to make a smooth mixture
