Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces fresh spinach, (see Note)
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese, or low-fat cottage cheese
1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
2 large eggs, beaten
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Pulse spinach in three batches in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add ricotta (or cottage cheese), Parmesan, eggs, garlic, salt and pepper; stir to combine.
  • Coat 8 cups of the muffin pan with cooking spray. Divide the spinach mixture among the 8 cups (they will be very full).
  • Bake the spinach cakes until set, about 20 minutes. Let stand in the pan for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges with a knife and turn out onto a clean cutting board or large plate. Serve warm, sprinkled with more Parmesan, if desired.

I'm not a big fan of spinach, but I actually really enjoyed these cakes. The parmesan cheese and bread crumbs really balance out the flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly but the cakes didn't turn out crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

The cakes were a little too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a bit more milk next time.

I added a bit of chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the batter and it gave the cakes a nice extra flavor boost.

Perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The cakes are also freezer-friendly, so you can make them ahead of time.

These cakes are a great way to use up leftover spinach. They're also a good source of protein and fiber.

Easy to make and so tasty! I served the cakes with a side of roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.

Delicious! I used frozen spinach and it worked just as well as fresh. The cakes were moist and flavorful.
