Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 cups Baby spinach
- 1 cup Reduced-fat feta cheese
- 1 small Onion
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 spritz Cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole wheat flour and salt. Gradually add the water and olive oil while stirring, until a smooth dough forms. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until elastic.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.
While the dough is resting, prepare the filling. Finely chop the onion and sauté it in a non-stick pan sprayed with cooking spray until translucent. Add the baby spinach and cook until wilted. Transfer to a bowl and let cool.
Once cooled, combine the spinach mixture with crumbled reduced-fat feta cheese. Add lemon juice and black pepper, mixing thoroughly.
Divide the dough into four equal portions. Roll each piece into a thin circle on a floured surface.
Spread a portion of the spinach and feta mixture over one half of the dough circle. Fold the other half over to enclose the filling, sealing the edges by pressing firmly.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray with cooking spray. Cook each gozleme for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
Slice and serve hot with optional lemon wedges on the side.
