Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh spinach, finely chopped
• 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1 large egg
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, almond flour, egg, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
3. Step 3: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, flattening each slightly with the back of the spoon to form crisp rounds.
4. Step 4: Bake the crisps for 15 to 18 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy around the edges.
5. Step 5: Remove from the oven and allow the crisps to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips & Variations

• For a nuttier flavor, toast the almond flour lightly before mixing it in.
• Substitute spinach with kale or Swiss chard for a different leafy green twist.
• Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mixture for a subtle spicy kick.
• Use goat cheese instead of feta for a creamier texture and tangy taste.

Storage

Store leftover crisps in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 to 7 minutes to regain crispiness. Avoid microwaving, as it may make them soggy.
