Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 4 cups Fresh spinach
- 8 ounces Brie cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter with the olive oil.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the spinach to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper, then remove from heat. Transfer to a colander or paper towels to remove excess moisture. Let it cool slightly.
Cut the Brie cheese into small 1-inch cubes.
Unfold the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Roll out each sheet slightly to smooth out the creases, then cut each sheet into 12 equal squares (for a total of 24 squares).
Place a cube of Brie in the center of 12 pastry squares. Top each with a small spoonful of the sautéed spinach.
Brush the edges of the pastry squares with the egg wash (whisk together the egg and water).
Place the remaining 12 pastry squares over the ones with filling. Press the edges together to seal, then crimp them with a fork to ensure they’re fully sealed.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the remaining egg wash for a golden finish.
Transfer the sealed puffs onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1-2 inches of space between each.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
