Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large eggs
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained well
1 tablespoon bread crumbs
2 ounces feta cheese, lightly crumbled
2 scallions, thinly sliced (about 2 tablespoons)
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 phyllo sheets, thawed
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs until frothy. Squeeze out excess water from spinach, and add spinach to eggs. Fold in breadcrumbs, feta, scallions, dill, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Set aside.
  • Lay 1 phyllo sheet on a clean work surface. Brush phyllo lightly with oil, and lay another sheet on top. Repeat layering phyllo sheets until all are used. Cut the stacked sheets into four squares.
  • Gently press phyllo squares into the four outer cups of a nonstick cupcake pan, being careful not to tear bottom. Spoon 1/4 of the spinach mixture into each lined cup. Gather excess dough at top of each filled cup, and twist to seal.
  • Bake bundles in oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
