These were very good. I only used red pepper since we don't like green. And I made regular-sized muffins - the recipe made 7 of them, and I had to cook them a bit longer.

These were very tasty little morsels. We enjoyed them very much. I love the addition of the sweet peppers. I used orange and green peppers, which made very pretty muffins. These one bite wonders had a nice texture and only took 6 minutes to bake. Thanks for sharing Lainey.
