Ingredients
  

Filling:

  • 6 strips thick sliced bacon
  • 6 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt/pepper to season
  • 150 grams cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 pickled artichoke hearts
  • ½ cup feta cheese we used goat feta

Pastry:

Instructions
 

  • Defrost pastry dough if frozen overnight in the fridge (or follow box directions).
  • On a cutting board, sprinkle flour and set out pastry dough to expand and rest for 15 minutes.

Prepare Filling:

  • Fry bacon in a pan at medium heat, until crisp but not overly. Once cooled, roughly chop and set aside.
  • Soften cream cheese in the microwave or a double boiler, using a large mixing bowl. You just want it mostly melted, not hot. Add garlic powder and two eggs, whisking well to avoid cooking egg. Set aside.
  • Steam spinach in a large pot with half a cup of water over medium heat for 5 minutes, and strain well, pushing out any water. Add 1 tablespoon butter and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  • Chop artichoke hearts, and remove any stiff, woody pieces.
  • In your large bowl of cream cheese, add spinach, feta, artichoke hearts, and bacon. Stir with a fork to break up spinach and combine everything. Taste and add salt and pepper as desired. Set aside.

Make Pastry:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Roll out dough into a rectangle of approximately 9x14" and ¼-inch thick.
  • Cut into 12 roughly even “squares." Roll each square out to twice its size.
  • Lightly grease 12 muffin tins or line with paper.
  • Set a square of dough in each muffin and add filling evenly distributed.
  • Beat egg with water and brush over the pastry.
  • Place muffin pan in middle of oven and let bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days, reheating in the oven as needed.
