Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Quick Spinach and Cheese Puff Pastry.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a large baking sheet a light spritz of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a spacious pan over medium-high heat, add a touch of cooking spray and toss in the fresh spinach, chopped green onions, fragrant dill, minced garlic, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
Step 3
Sauté this vibrant mixture for about 3 to 5 minutes, just until the spinach wilts and releases its delicious juices.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the creamy mozzarella, tangy Parmesan, and crumbly feta cheeses.
Step 5
Gently fold in the sautéed spinach mixture and, if you’re feeling adventurous, add a beaten egg for extra richness.
Step 6
Mix everything together until it’s beautifully combined.
Step 7
Now, lay one sheet of puff pastry on your prepared baking sheet and moisten the edges with a wet fingertip to help seal it later.
Step 8
Spoon the luscious spinach and cheese filling into the center, making sure to leave a generous 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Step 9
Carefully place the second sheet of puff pastry on top, pressing down the edges to create a lovely seal.
Step 10
To let the steam escape while baking, cut a couple of slits in the top.
Step 11
Give the surface a quick spray with cooking spray for that golden finish.
Step 12
Pop it into your preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it turns a beautiful golden brown.
Step 13
Once it’s out of the oven, let it cool for about 5 minutes before slicing it into delightful sections with a pizza cutter.
Step 14
Enjoy the warm, cheesy goodness!.
