Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the spinach thoroughly and pat dry. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Mince the garlic cloves and sauté them in the olive oil for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, cream cheese, feta cheese (crumbled), salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy filling.
Lightly beat the egg and add it to the spinach mixture to help bind the filling. Stir to combine evenly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one puff pastry sheet if necessary. Divide it into rectangular sections approximately 10 cm x 15 cm (4” x 6”).
Spoon a generous amount of the spinach filling along one edge of each rectangle and gently roll the pastry over the filling, sealing the edges lightly.
Place the rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the second puff pastry sheet and remaining filling.
Brush the top of each roll with the prepared egg wash to ensure a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed and golden brown.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm as an appetizer or a snack!
