Filling and Crust Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sauté until soft.

  2. 2

    Mix Spinach and Cheeses

    In a large bowl, combine thawed spinach, sautéed onion and garlic, feta cheese, ricotta cheese, eggs, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Phyllo Pastry

    Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush a baking dish with melted butter. Lay one sheet of phyllo dough in the dish, brush with butter, and repeat with 4 layers.

  4. 4

    Add the Filling

    Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the layered phyllo dough in the dish.

  5. 5

    Top with Phyllo

    Layer the remaining phyllo sheets on top of the filling, brushing each layer with melted butter. Crimp the edges to seal.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Cut slits in the top layer for steam to escape. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Allow the spinach pie to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
