Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F (180C). With an electric mixer, mix the eggs, vinegar, yeast, baking powder, salt, baking soda, sugar, olive oil and yogurt. Mix until just combined.
- Add the flour and fold with a spatula. Add the feta cheese, olives and zaatar, and fold until just combined.
- Spray 12 muffin pan cavities with non stick spray, or lightly oil and dust with flour. Divide the batter evenly among the compartments.
- Bake for 20-23 minutes or until golden brown and toothpick inserted comes out clean. I baked on the middle rack for 15 min, then on the top rack for the last 5 min to get that golden color.
