Ingredients

6 servings

For the cups

8 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.

For the filling

1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped
¾ cup crumbled feta cheese
1 large egg, lightly beaten
¼ tsp ground black pepper
⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush 12 cups of a standard muffin tin with some of the melted butter.
2
Lay one sheet of phyllo on a clean work surface and brush it evenly with melted butter. Lay a second sheet directly on top and brush again. Repeat with two more sheets so you have a 4-layer stack. Cut the stack into 6 equal squares (roughly 4×4 inches each). Press each square gently into a prepared muffin cup, letting the corners ruffle up above the rim. Repeat with the remaining 4 phyllo sheets to fill all 12 cups.
