Savory Spinach Puffs with Cream Cheese Delight

Spinach Puffs with Cream Cheese made approachable with clear cues, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh spinach chopped
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 sheet puff pastry thawed
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, softened cream cheese, mozzarella, Parmesan, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet to smooth it out. Cut the pastry into 3-inch squares.
  • Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the spinach and cream cheese mixture into the center of each pastry square.
  • Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to create a triangle shape and press the edges to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  • Place the prepared puffs on the lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg to give them a golden color while baking.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
  • Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious spinach puffs warm or at room temperature.
