Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet Vegan puff pastry (pre-made, thawed if frozen)
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 cup Vegan feta cheese
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Unsweetened plant-based milk (e.g., almond, soy, oat)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add fresh spinach leaves to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, crumbled vegan feta cheese, nutritional yeast, salt, and black pepper. Stir until evenly mixed and set aside.
On a clean, lightly floured surface, roll out the vegan puff pastry sheet. Cut the sheet into 4 equal triangles.
Place a generous tablespoon of the spinach-feta mixture on the wide end of each triangle.
Carefully roll up each triangle, starting from the wide end and rolling towards the tip. Curve the ends slightly to form a crescent shape.
Place the rolled croissants onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with plant-based milk to encourage browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and puffed.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your flaky Vegan Spinach Feta Croissants!
