Gathering ingredients shouldn’t feel like a scavenger hunt. Here’s what you need for these delightful bites:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup cooked spinach, well-drained
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Pinch of black pepper
Feel free to substitute with whole wheat flour for a slightly nutty flavor, or swap in ricotta if you’re out of feta. The beauty of home cooking is making it work with what you have!
Instructions
Let’s get these cookies ready to impress!
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the butter until creamy, then add the egg and continue beating until well combined.
- Fold in the feta, spinach, olive oil, oregano, and black pepper into the butter mixture.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Drop tablespoon-sized scoops of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
And there you have it—warm, savory cookies that bring a touch of Greece to your kitchen. Just like how my dad’s stories turned a simple meal into a cherished memory, these cookies will surely become a family favorite.
