Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh spinach, finely chopped
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the finely chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, almond flour, egg, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Form Crisps: Use a tablespoon to scoop portions of the mixture onto the lined baking sheet, flattening each scoop slightly to form crisps.
- Bake: Bake the crisps in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until they turn golden brown and develop a crispy texture.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the crisps to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving to let them firm up and enhance texture.
Notes
- Make sure to finely chop the spinach to help the crisps hold together better.
- For a crispier texture, you can bake a few minutes longer, but watch closely to prevent burning.
- These crisps can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven to regain crispiness.
- Almond flour makes these crisps gluten-free; substituting with regular flour will change texture and taste.
