Yield 8 cakes, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°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.

These cakes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would add some more moisture next time.

These cakes were a little bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices or herbs next time.

I love these cakes! They're so versatile - you can serve them as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. I've even used them as a filling for sandwiches. They're always a hit.

These cakes were easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh spinach and Parmesan cheese, and they were so flavorful. I served them with a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

I made these cakes for my family, and they were a big success! The kids loved them, and my husband and I thought they were delicious too. They're a great way to get your kids to eat their spinach.

These parmesan spinach cakes were a hit at my dinner party! They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a cheesy, flavorful filling. My guests raved about them, and I'll definitely be making them again.
