Warm, flaky puff pastry filled with fresh spinach, tangy feta cheese, and creamy cream cheese, perfect for any gathering.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package of puff pastry (thawed)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (chopped)
  • 1 cup feta cheese (crumbled)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (or fresh, if available)
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, softened cream cheese, minced garlic, black pepper, salt, and oregano. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet to smoothen it. Cut the pastry into rectangles, approximately 4 inches by 6 inches.
  3. Place a generous spoonful of the spinach and feta filling in the center of each pastry rectangle. Fold the pastry over to create a triangle, sealing the edges by pressing them with a fork.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the assembled twists on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with the beaten egg and sprinkle sesame seeds if desired.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don’t over-bake.
  6. Once baked, let them cool slightly before serving. These twists are best enjoyed warm and gooey!

Notes

For healthier options, consider using low-fat cream cheese or whole-grain puff pastry. Serve with a side of salad or dipping sauce.
