Ingredients
  

  • 5 oz fresh spinach about 5 packed cups
  • 4 oz feta cheese crumbled, from a block in brine is best
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp olive oil for brushing

Equipment

  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Parchment Paper
  • 1 Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Sauté the fresh spinach in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Transfer to a cheesecloth or paper towels and squeeze out all excess moisture until very dry.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix the dried spinach, crumbled feta, almond flour, beaten egg, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
  4. Drop heaping teaspoons of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each mound with a spoon to about ¼-inch thickness.
  5. Lightly brush the tops with olive oil. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden brown and the crisps are firm.
  6. Let the crisps cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes to set before transferring to a wire rack. They will get crispier as they cool down.

Notes

Moisture is the Enemy: The most crucial step for crispy results is drying the spinach completely. Squeeze it thoroughly!
Even Thickness: Flatten the crisps to a uniform thickness to ensure they all bake evenly.
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
