Two sheets of thawed puff pastry
2 cups of chopped, fresh spinach
1/2 cup ricotta
Half a cup of Parmesan cheese, grated
1 beaten egg (to make egg wash)
powdered garlic, measuring 1 teaspoon
Garnish with salt and pepper as desired.
a tablespoon of olive oil

Preparation
Get the Oven Ready:

Arrange parchment paper on a baking sheet and set the oven temperature to 400°F, or 200°C.

Warm the olive oil in a big skillet over medium heat.

After two or three minutes, add the chopped spinach and stir-fry until the spinach wilts.

Get it off the burner and give it a little time to cool.

Toss together the cooked spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Combine thoroughly.

Pastry Assembly:

Flour a board and roll out the puff pastry sheets.

Make sure you have 8 squares in total by cutting each page into 4 equal halves.

Scoop out some spinach and cheese and put it in the middle of each square.

Shape the dough into a square, rectangle, or triangle, then use a fork to crimp the edges.

Place the pastries on the baking sheet that has been preheated.

Put on the Egg Wash:

For a golden garnish, brush the beaten egg over the pastries’ tops.

Bake:

Puff the pastries and bake them until they become golden brown, around 15 to 20 minutes in a preheated oven.

Place the order:

Serve the pastries when they have cooled a little.

Whether served hot or chilled, these spinach stuffed pastries are sure to please.

The spinach stuffing in these pastries is bursting with flavor and the pastry is flaky and cheesy. No party would be complete without them!
