Spinach-Stuffed Pastry

Ingredients:

  • 2 sheets of puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. In a medium bowl, combine the cooked spinach, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
  3. Assemble the Pastries:
    Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 squares (yielding 8 squares in total). Place a spoonful of the spinach and cheese mixture in the center of each square. Fold the pastry over to form either a rectangle or triangle, and seal the edges by pressing them with a fork. Arrange the prepared pastries on the lined baking sheet.
  4. Apply Egg Wash:
    Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg to achieve a golden finish.
  5. Bake:
    Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.

Enjoy your delicious spinach-stuffed pastries!
