You can make these quick, crispy, baked savory crisps featuring spinach and feta cheese. They are perfect for serving as a Mediterranean snack or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus extra for brushing
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, finely chopped
  • 4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of salt (feta is salty)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, beaten egg, oregano, and pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Lay one sheet of phyllo dough flat on your work surface. Brush the entire surface lightly with olive oil.
  4. Place a second sheet of phyllo dough directly on top of the first. Brush this second sheet lightly with olive oil.
  5. Spoon about one tablespoon of the spinach and feta mixture along one long edge of the stacked phyllo sheets, leaving a small border.
  6. Fold the short ends of the phyllo over the filling slightly. Then, tightly roll the dough from the long edge over the filling to create a thin log.
  7. Brush the outside of the log lightly with olive oil.
  8. Slice the log into 1-inch thick pieces to create individual crisps or triangles. Place the crisps cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Repeat steps 4 through 10 with the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
  10. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crisps are golden brown and crisp.
  11. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • If you prefer a stronger Mediterranean flavor, add 1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest to the filling mixture.
  • For a lower effort preparation, you can layer 5 sheets of phyllo, brush with oil, spread the entire filling over the top, roll into a large log, slice, and bake.
  • These are best served the day they are made for maximum crispness.
