Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin pan or line with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and olive oil until well combined.
Grate the cheddar cheese using a box grater.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the pork sausage until browned and crumbly. Drain excess fat.
Roughly chop the spinach. Mince the garlic cloves. Finely chop the onion.
Gradually stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing just until incorporated. Fold in the grated cheese, cooked sausage, chopped spinach, minced garlic, and chopped onion.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
