Greek Spinach Pie

By: Krystle Smith from Baking Beauty
Greek Spinach Pie

"My spanakopita features a flavorful spinach and feta filling inside ultra crunchy phyllo dough. This Greek spinach pie is easy to make at home but tastes like it came from your favorite Greek restaurant! Why Our Recipe Is the Best: A Sprinkle of Food Science Use Oil Not Butter: Unlike butter which is over 15% water oil is 100% fat. This leads to a lighter crispier dough. Use Fresh Not Frozen Spinach: When testing this recipe the fresh spinach tasted more flavorful and also held onto less moisture which helps prevent it from getting soggy. Use a Baking Sheet Not a Casserole Dish: This ensures air can circulate and helps the side sand bottoms crisp up. Cut Before Baking: After baking the dough can be brittle making it can be hard to get clean slices without it shattering. Precutting ensures you can get picture perfect slices. "
