Ingredients

Ingredients List
  • nonstick cooking spray

  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed in the refrigerator

  • ¾ cup mayonnaise

  • 1 (6 ounce) container crumbled feta cheese

  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (180 degrees C). Spray cups of a 24-cup mini muffin pan (or 2 12-cup mini muffin pans) with nonstick cooking spray.

  2. Roll out the thawed but cold puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle using a rolling pin. Cut into 24 (approximately 2 1/2-inch) squares using a pizza cutter. Lightly press puff pastry squares into each cup of the prepared mini muffin pan and prick with the tines of a fork.

  3. Mix the mayonnaise, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, spinach, garlic, and pepper together in a bowl.

  4. Spoon feta-spinach mixture evenly into the cups, being careful not to overflow the cups.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is puffed and the corners are golden brown, 15 to 16 minutes.

  6. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes before transferring the bites to a serving dish.
