Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (cold)
- 1 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 2 Eggs
- 1 cup Feta cheese (crumbled)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Egg (for egg wash)
- 2 teaspoons Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large pan over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the minced garlic for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the pan, stirring occasionally, until wilted. This should take about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and 1 egg. Mix well and set the filling aside.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, salt, and baking powder.
Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter in until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the Greek yogurt and mix until the dough starts coming together. Knead gently with your hands to form a smooth dough.
Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
Spread the spinach and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges.
Starting from one long edge, gently roll the dough into a tight log. Pinch the seam to seal the roll.
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 1-inch rounds and place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if desired.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
