Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup almond flour (or all-purpose flour)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
-
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2: Prepare the Crisp Mixture
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, almond flour, egg, olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Mix until everything is well combined and holds together.
Step 3: Form the Crisps
- Take small spoonfuls of the mixture and form them into round balls or small patties. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Step 4: Bake the Crisps
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crisps are golden brown and crispy on the edges. You can flip them halfway through the baking time to ensure even crispiness.
Step 5: Serve
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) and serve.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, use almond flour or coconut flour instead of regular flour.
- You can add extra Mediterranean flavors, such as olives or sun-dried tomatoes, to the mixture for variety.
- If you prefer a stronger feta flavor, feel free to increase the amount of feta.
