A visually stunning and savory spiral-shaped pastry filled with creamy spinach, feta, and herbs, baked to golden perfection. Its mesmerizing swirls are sure to captivate every scroll on social media.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 package (17.3 oz) frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add spinach and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. In a bowl, combine the cooled spinach, feta, ricotta, Parmesan, oregano, pepper, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  4. Roll out one sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 10×12 inch rectangle. Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  5. Starting from one long side, tightly roll the pastry into a log. Using a sharp knife, slice the log in half lengthwise, exposing the spiral layers.
  6. Twist the two halves together gently to form a spiral shape, then coil it into a round spiral on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the top with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
