Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups fresh spinach finely chopped
  • 1 cup feta cheese crumbled, preferably from a block packed in brine
  • 1/2 cup almond flour blanched, not almond meal
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tbsp olive oil extra virgin preferred
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt adjust after tasting mixture
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • mixing bowl
  • cookie scoop

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Finely chop the fresh spinach.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the spinach, crumbled feta, almond flour, egg, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined, do not overmix.
  4. Taste the raw mixture and adjust salt as needed before portioning.
  5. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.
  6. Gently flatten each portion to an even thickness of approximately 1/4 inch.
  7. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until golden brown around the edges and set on top.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool on the pan for at least 5 minutes before serving. The crisps firm up and crisp as they cool.

Notes

Store at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Freeze between parchment layers for up to 1 month. Reheat in a 350 degree F oven for 3 to 5 minutes to restore crunch. Serve with tzatziki, hummus, or crumble over Greek salad.
