FOR PIE CRUST:

• To taste of salt

• 1 tablespoon of coconut flour

FILLING:

• To taste of powdered peppercorn
• 0.5 kg of spinach
• Salt, to taste
• Six eggs, normal-sized
• A big handful of mint (fresh)
• Half onion
• 0.25 kg of crumbled feta cheese
• Full-fat cream cheese, 1/4th kg

INGREDIENT NOTES:

EGGS:

• If you want the perfect baking, your eggs must be at normal standard temperature.

COCONUT FLOUR:

• The small addition of coconut flour will help you handle the pie more easily, so this addition would benefit you.

FLOUR OF ALMOND:

• Here we are using flour of almond but you may go for the meal of Almond if you don’t have flour. We recommend using the flour (almond) for a nice & smooth texture.

MINT:

• The addition of mint takes this to another level. Always try to use fresh mint to have a stronger flavor.

CREAM CHEESE:

• We recommend using cream cheese that must be full of fat. Go for the ricotta cheese in the event that you are without cream cheese.

ONION:

• It is always better to chop the onion by yourself. You may go for the pre-chopped version if you are short on time. We recommend you use the fresh onion (white) to have the best results.

FETA CHEESE:

• Again full-fat cheese should be used here. If you don’t get the feta cheese then you may also go for cottage cheese.

4. Mix well using the spoon to have the perfect mixture.
5. Apply oil on the bottom & all sides of the pie dish.
6. Shift the mixture of the pie crust on that oiled dish.
7. Use the piece of paper, even the pie crust layer either using a glass tumbler/the back of your hand.
8. Pick a fork & pierce through the crust, making holes all over the crust.
9. Shift the pan to the oven & cook it for about fifteen minutes.
10. After that remove that pie dish from the oven.

MAKING OF FILLING:

TIPS:

• To bake the even and crispy crust we recommend making holes in the crust.
• You can use the fresh spinach if you not have frozen spinach. You just need to cook and evaporate all its water before making the filling.

STORAGE INFORMATION:

This pie is very storage-friendly. Once, it cools down, cover it using the wrap & keep it in the sealed container.
It will be safe without any chiller for six to eight hours.

FRIDGE:

• Pack it as directed above. Shift the pie to the fridge to enjoy it for 4 or 5 days.

FREEZER:

FAQs:

How can you serve this spinach pie?

• You may pair the spinach pie with baked veggies in winter and salads in summer.

What should one do if he/she is allergic to nuts?

• If the nuts don’t suit you then go for the nut-free version of the spinach pie. It will be the crustless pie often named crust less quiche or a frittata.

Why it is important to remove the water from the spinach whether it is frozen/fresh?

• If we did not do this, we get the moist/soggy pie at the end.
