  • Preheat the oven to 400F (200C).

  • In a small bowl, combine the feta cheese, roasted bell pepper, olives and parsley until well mixed.
  • Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and black pepper until well mixed.
  • Pour in the milk, olive oil, lemon juice and egg, and stir until just moistened and incorporated.
  • If the batter seems a bit dry, add a bit more milk.
  • Fill each muffin cup 1/4 full with the batter.

  • Press the top batter to seal.

  • Remove the pan from the oven, then remove the biscuits to a wire rack and let cool.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.
