1
Prepare Phyllo Pastry
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Lay out one sheet of phyllo pastry on a clean surface and brush it with melted butter. Place a second sheet on top and brush it again with butter.
2
Fill and Fold
Place a generous amount of the spinach filling along one edge of the phyllo pastry. Carefully fold the sides over the filling and roll it up tightly to form a log. Repeat this process with the remaining sheets and filling.
3
Place on Baking Tray
Arrange the filled phyllo rolls on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with any remaining melted butter.
4
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and crispy.
