Ingredients Needed

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh spinach, washed and finely chopped
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil spray

How to Make Our Mediterranean Spinach and Feta Crisps

Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly coat it with olive oil spray.

Step 2: Prep the Spinach
After washing the spinach, chop it finely and gently squeeze out excess moisture using a clean towel. This helps the crisps bake up firm and golden rather than soggy.

Step 3: Mix the Batter
In a medium bowl, combine:

  • Chopped spinach
  • Feta cheese
  • Parmesan cheese
  • Flour
  • Garlic powder
  • Dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper

Pour in the beaten eggs and mix until fully combined. The mixture should be thick but spoonable.

Step 4: Form the Crisps
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently flatten each mound with the back of a spoon to form thin rounds.

Step 5: Bake Until Crispy
Lightly spray the tops with olive oil. Bake for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the crisps are golden and lightly crisp around the edges.

Step 6: Cool Slightly
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2–3 minutes. They will firm up as they cool, developing their final crisp texture.

These make a great high-protein snack, Mediterranean appetizer, or healthy savory bite.


Storage & Serving Suggestions

  • Best enjoyed fresh for maximum crispness
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days

  • Delicious alongside soups or Mediterranean salads

Tips & FAQs (SEO-Optimized)

Can I make these gluten-free?
Yes. Swap all-purpose flour for almond flour or a gluten-free blend. Texture may be slightly softer.

Can I air-fry these crisps?
Absolutely. Air fry at 190°C (375°F) for 6–8 minutes, flipping once.

Why aren’t my crisps crispy enough?
Excess moisture from spinach is usually the cause. Make sure it’s well-drained and flattened thin before baking.

Can I add other vegetables?
Yes. Finely chopped olives, sun-dried tomatoes, or scallions work well—just keep additions minimal.

Are these good for meal prep?
They’re best fresh but can be made ahead and reheated briefly to restore crispness.
