INGREDIENT NOTES:

SPINACH:

• Spinach provides a fresh flavor with a fiber content. Utilize arugula or kale instead.

FETA CHEESE:

• Feta cheese gives a creamy and tarty flavor. We can replace it with cream cheese, ricotta, or goat cheese.

ALMOND FLOUR:

• This ingredient is used to make a flaky dough texture. Alternatively, you might utilize a tiny amount of coconut or sunflower seed flour.

MOZZARELLA CHEESE:

• Mozzarella cheese delivers a stretchy texture with easy melting. We can swap it with cheddar, fontina, or provolone.

CREAM CHEESE:

• Cream cheese helps to improve the flexibility of the dough. You can use the ricotta, goat, or mascarpone cheese as a replacement.

XANTHAN GUM:

• Xanthan gum maintains the elastic texture of the dough. We can use ground flex seed, guar gam, or chia seed gel instead.
