Flaky, golden puff pastry bites filled with creamy ricotta and savory spinach — the perfect finger food for brunches, parties, or snack cravings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix ricotta, spinach, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Roll out puff pastry sheets slightly and cut each into 9 equal squares.
  4. Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each square and pinch corners together.
  5. Place on baking sheet, brush with egg wash, and bake for 18–20 minutes until golden and puffed.
  6. Cool slightly and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make sure spinach is completely dry to avoid soggy filling.
  • Don’t overfill the pastry or it may burst open while baking.
  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  • Can be frozen after baking and reheated for quick snacks.
