Spinach & Feta Galette: Spanakopita in Puff Pastry



Print this recipe here: https://www.dimitrasdishes.com/spinach-feta-galette/
Ingredients
1 sheet (500g) puff pastry, thawed
1 pound baby spinach leaves
3-4 tablespoons olive oil
3-4 scallions, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, grated
salt, to taste
freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
8 oz (230g) cream cheese, softened
6 oz (170g) feta cheese
3 oz (90g) gouda cheese, shredded
egg wash: 1 yolk plus 2-3 tablespoons milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 °F, 200 °C.
Make the Spinach Filling:

Heat a large pan over medium-heat. Add the oil and scallions and a pinch of salt. Cook the scallions until softened.

Add the garlic and warm through for a few seconds until fragrant.

Add the spinach leaves in a few batches. Increase the heat to medium-high and season each batch with salt and pepper. The high heat will help the liquid thatthe spinach releases evapotrate. Once each batch wilts add the next until all of the spinach has cooked and wilted.

Remove the pan from the heat and add the cream cheese. Mix together until incorporated. Crumble the feta cheese into the mixture, mix together and taste. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Add a teaspoon of dried dill if desired. Allow the filling to cool to room temperature.

Assemble the Galette:

Lighty dust some flour over your work surface. Roll out the pastry to be 14-inches round (see video).

Dock the pastry with a fork and transfer to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

Spread the filling over the pastry leaving a 2-inch border.

Fold the edges of the pastry over to create a crust.

Combine the egg wash ingredients together and whisk until smooth. Brush the egg wash over the crust.

Sprinkle the gouda cheese over the spinach filling.

Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 25-35 minutes.

    Well I made your zucchini and feta galette, which by the way turned out phenomenal!!
    I can't wait to do it with the spinach.
    I've already made your spanakopita recipe which is the best by far.

    Omigosh! This looks amazing. Our family loves when we make your spanakopita recipe. Will have to try this one, thank you❤.

    This wouldn’t be an appetizer, because I would just eat the entire thing myself for dinner. No sharing. Reminds me of my mom’s spinach pie. The only difference is the pastry, and pecorino Romano for the cheese. My favorite food since I could chew food. 😂 ❤looks so good!

  21. Pammy

    Can you remove the puff pastry from the oven paper for serving at the table?? Or even before baking???

    This looks amazing! Thank you so much!

He thought I said delicious
