Equipment

  • baking sheets
  • mixing bowl
  • colander
  • silicone spatula

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 (10 ounce) frozen spinach thawed, cooled, and drained
  • 1 tablespoon flour for dusting counter
  • 2 sheets thawed puff pastry (one 17.3 ounce box)

Topping

  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 400℉. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Combine the cream cheese, parmesan cheese, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper in a medium mixing bowl. Mix until smooth.
  • Add the egg and soy sauce. Mix until creamy and light. Stir in the thawed and drained spinach.
  • Roll out each thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured counter to about a 12”x10”. Cut each sheet into 9 pieces.
  • Turn the pastry so it looks like a diamond. Spoon the filling down the center in the middle of the pastry from top to bottom, leaving about a half-inch on each side. Lightly brush whisked egg on the right corner of the pastry.
  • Fold the left pastry corner over the filling.
  • Then fold the egg-washed right over the first folded piece of dough. Press gently to seal.
  • Transfer the pastry to the prepared baking sheet. Place 9 pastries on each sheet.
  • Brush each pastry lightly with the remaining whisked egg. Sprinkle with a little grated parmesan.
  • Bake until golden brown, about 18 minutes.
  • Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
  • Store leftover pastries in the refrigerator for up to four days.

Notes

Store leftover pastry in the refrigerator for up to four days. For freezing, bake as directed, cool completely, place in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze, then transfer to a freezer container.
