Crispy Spinach Feta Phyllo Pie
Enjoy a light yet satisfying version of the classic spanakopita. This crispy phyllo pie features a savory blend of spinach, tangy feta, and a combination of whole egg and egg whites for an extra protein punch. A hint of dill and lemon zest elevates the flavors, making it a delightful option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Feta Cheese
1 whole egg
2 egg whites
2 cups fresh spinach
2 phyllo dough sheets
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh dill
1 tsp lemon zest
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a small baking tray.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole egg and egg whites. Crumble the feta cheese into the bowl and add chopped fresh spinach (you can roughly chop the spinach if using raw), fresh dill, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Gently mix the ingredients to combine, taking care not to overly break down the spinach.
Lay out one phyllo sheet on a clean surface and lightly brush with olive oil. Place the second phyllo sheet on top and brush with a little more oil.
Spoon the spinach and feta mixture down the center of the phyllo layers, leaving a small border around the edges.
Fold in the sides of the phyllo to partially enclose the filling, then roll gently to form a tight log or traditional pie shape.
Place the rolled pie on the prepared baking tray and brush the top lightly with additional olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the phyllo is crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
