Ingredients
- 1 sheet Frozen dairy-free puff pastry
- 150 grams Baby spinach
- 120 grams Dairy-free cream cheese
- 100 grams Shredded dairy-free mozzarella
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened almond milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Thaw the puff pastry sheet according to package instructions. Make sure it’s pliable but still cold.
Step 3
While the puff pastry is thawing, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until it’s wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the spinach cool slightly.
Step 6
In a large bowl, mix the sautéed spinach with dairy-free cream cheese, shredded dairy-free mozzarella, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined.
Step 7
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet slightly to smooth the edges. Cut the sheet into 4 equal squares.
Step 8
Place a generous scoop of the spinach and cheese mixture in the center of each square.
Step 9
Fold each square into a triangle or rectangle shape, depending on your preference, and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for an extra-tight seal.
Step 10
Brush the tops of the pastries with unsweetened almond milk for a golden finish.
Step 11
Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring at least 1 inch of space between them.
Step 12
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Step 13
Remove from the oven and let the pastries cool for 5 minutes before serving.
