Introducing our delectable Keto-friendly Spanakopita Bites! A modern twist on a traditional Greek favorite, these savory morsels are sure to delight your taste buds and keep you on track with your low-carb lifestyle.

Spanakopita, a popular Greek dish, has a rich history dating back to ancient times. The original recipe featured layers of phyllo pastry filled with spinach, feta cheese, and herbs. Our Keto-friendly version replaces the high-carb phyllo with a delicious almond flour crust, maintaining the authentic flavors while keeping the net carbs low.

Spanakopita is believed to have been created by the Greeks as a dish to celebrate the goddess Athena, making it a dish with both culinary and cultural significance.

Each bite is packed with nutrient-rich spinach, high-quality protein from the feta cheese, and healthy fats from the almond flour crust. These bites are a great source of vitamins A, K, and calcium, perfect for supporting bone health and overall well-being.

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Alternatively, you can freeze them for up to a month, allowing you to have a quick and satisfying Keto-friendly snack on hand whenever you crave it.

Ingredients: 

For the crust:

• 1 ½ cups almond flour
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ teaspoon salt

For the filling:

• 10 oz (about 280g) fresh spinach, chopped
• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried dill
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray or use cupcake liners.
2. To make the crust, in a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, egg, olive oil, and salt. Mix until a dough forms. Divide the dough into 24 equal portions.
3. Press each portion of the dough into the bottom and sides of the mini muffin cups, forming a little crust for the filling.
4. For the filling, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
5. Add chopped spinach to the pan and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
6. In a separate bowl, mix together the wilted spinach, crumbled feta cheese, dried dill, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
7. Spoon the spinach and feta mixture into the almond flour crusts in the muffin tin, filling them to the top.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the crust is golden and the filling is set.
9. Remove the Spanakopita Bites from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Once cooled, serve and enjoy your Keto-friendly Spanakopita Bites!
