1
Prepare the Spinach
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Rinse the fresh spinach thoroughly, then steam or sauté it until wilted. Allow it to cool slightly, then chop finely.
2
Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, ricotta cheese, grated Romano cheese, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
3
Add Eggs and Butter
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add them to the spinach mixture along with the whipped butter. Stir until everything is evenly incorporated.
4
Bake the Loaf
Grease a loaf pan and pour the mixture into it. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5
Cool and Serve
Once baked, allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
