Description

Delicious flaky pastry filled with savory spinach, feta, and cream cheese, perfect for brunch or as finger food.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package Puff Pastry
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach
  • 1 cup Feta Cheese
  • 1/2 cup Cream Cheese
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 Egg, for egg wash (or olive oil for vegan option)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Sauté minced garlic in a skillet until fragrant, then add fresh spinach and cook until wilted; remove from heat and let cool.
  3. In a bowl, mix the cooled spinach with feta and cream cheese, and season with salt and pepper.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry and cut into squares/rectangles.
  5. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each piece of pastry.
  6. Fold the pastry over the filling to seal, and use a fork to press the edges together.
  7. Brush the tops with egg wash or olive oil.
  8. Bake on a lined baking sheet for 20–25 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For a crispy texture, reheat leftovers in the oven instead of the microwave.
