Ingredients

• 1 batch Vegan croissant dough (store-bought or homemade)
• 2 cups Fresh spinach
• 1 cup Vegan feta cheese
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Plant-based milk (for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the vegan croissant dough according to package instructions or make your own homemade vegan croissant dough ahead of time.

Step 2

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 4

Crumble the vegan feta cheese and combine it with the cooked spinach mixture in a small bowl. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

Preheat the oven according to the croissant dough package instructions or to 375°F (190°C) if using homemade dough.

Step 6

Roll out the croissant dough on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 8 triangles.

Step 7

Place a spoonful of the spinach and feta mixture at the base of each triangle. Roll the dough up from the base to the tip, forming the classic croissant shape.

Step 8

Place the croissants on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving enough space between them to expand.

Step 9

Brush the tops of the croissants with plant-based milk for a golden finish.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and flaky.

Step 11

Allow the croissants to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
