Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (180 degrees C). Spray cups of a 24-cup mini muffin pan (or 2 12-cup mini muffin pans) with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2
Roll out the thawed but cold puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle using a rolling pin. Cut into 24 (approximately 2 1/2-inch) squares using a pizza cutter. Lightly press puff pastry squares into each cup of the prepared mini muffin pan and prick with the tines of a fork.
Step 3
Mix the mayonnaise, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, spinach, garlic, and pepper together in a bowl.
Step 4
Spoon feta-spinach mixture evenly into the cups, being careful not to overflow the cups.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until pastry is puffed and the corners are golden brown, 15 to 16 minutes.
Step 6
Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes before transferring the bites to a serving dish.
