A delightful twist on the classic Greek spinach pie, this recipe combines creamy spinach and cheese filling with a flaky puff pastry crust for a delicious and easy-to-make dish.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
Ensure the oven is fully preheated to achieve a golden crust.
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the creamed spinach, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped scallions until well combined.
Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
Pour the spinach mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Use a spatula to smooth the top for an even layer.
Roll out the puff pastry on a floured surface to fit the size of your baking dish. Place it over the filling, tucking the edges in.
Keep the puff pastry cold for easier handling.
Brush the puff pastry with the beaten egg to give it a shiny, golden finish.
For extra flavor, sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
Check the pie halfway through to ensure even baking.
Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
