Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 0.333 cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw a puff pastry sheet according to the package instructions and set aside.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Chop the sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well-mixed.
Add the cooked spinach and sun-dried tomatoes to the cream cheese mixture, stirring to combine.
Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Spread the spinach and sun-dried tomato mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border at one edge.
Starting from the edge opposite the border, tightly roll the pastry into a log.
Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 evenly sized slices and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the spirals with the egg wash for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
