In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder.

3. Knead the Dough

Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead gently for about 2-3 minutes until smooth.

4. Sauté Onions and Garlic

In a medium skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent.

5. Add Spinach

Add the cooked and chopped spinach to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for another minute.

6. Mix in Cheese and Season

Remove the skillet from heat, and mix in the grated cheese and black pepper until well combined.

8. Roll Out the Dough

Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each dough piece. Fold over and seal the edges with a fork.

Place the filled bites on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
