Method
Dough Preparation
Activate Yeast
In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until frothy.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Mix well.
Combine Ingredients
Make a well in the center of the flour mixture. Add the activated yeast mixture and olive oil. Stir until a dough begins to form.
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Let It Rise
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Filling Preparation
Mix Filling Ingredients
In a bowl, combine ricotta cheese, cooked spinach, feta cheese, egg, nutmeg, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Assembly and Baking
Preheat Oven
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll Out Dough
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
Cut and Fill
Cut the dough into circles (about 4 inches in diameter). Place a spoonful of filling on one half of each circle and fold the other half over. Pinch the edges to seal.
Arrange on Baking Sheet
Place the filled dough on a greased baking sheet. Brush the tops with olive oil.
Add Topping
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and chopped basil on top of each filled dough.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
