Instructions:
- 1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Filling:
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, combine the cooked spinach, ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- 3. Assemble the Pastries:
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface.
Cut each sheet into 4 squares, yielding 8 squares total.
Place a spoonful of the spinach and cheese mixture in the center of each square.
Fold the pastry over to form a rectangle or triangle and press the edges with a fork to seal.
Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet.
4. Apply Egg Wash:
Brush the tops of the pastries with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
- 5. Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
6. Serve:
Let the pastries cool slightly before serving.
Enjoy these flaky, cheesy Spinach Stuffed Pastries warm or at room temperature. They are sure to be a hit at any gathering!
