Description
Elevate your appetizer game with this unique twist on the classic spanakopita. Crisp rice paper shells are filled with a creamy spinach and feta mixture, creating a delightful and easy-to-make Greek-inspired treat.
Ingredients
– 12 rice paper wrappers
– 2 cups fresh spinach, finely chopped
– 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
– 2 eggs, lightly beaten
– 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine the chopped spinach, feta cheese, eggs, dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully incorporated.
3. Working with one rice paper wrapper at a time, dip it in water for 10-15 seconds to soften. Transfer the wet wrapper to a clean work surface.
4. Place 2-3 tablespoons of the spinach-feta mixture in the center of the wrapper. Fold the bottom edge over the filling, then fold in the sides and continue rolling tightly into a cylinder.
5. Arrange the rolled rice paper spanakopita on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the wrappers are golden brown and crispy.
7. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For best results, work with one rice paper wrapper at a time, as they can become sticky and difficult to work with if left out for too long. Serve the rice paper spanakopita warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
