Ingredients

Scale

Spinach Mixture

  • 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Topping

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chopped fresh spinach, softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated into a cohesive mixture.
  3. Form Crisps: Using a spoon, drop spoonfuls of the spinach and cheese mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading. Slightly flatten each mound using the back of the spoon to create even crisps.
  4. Top with Cheddar: Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese on top of each flattened portion, enhancing both flavor and crispiness.
  5. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges of the crisps turn golden brown and the cheese topping is bubbly and melted.
  6. Cool & Serve: Remove from the oven and let the crisps cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet to firm up. Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy as a satisfying snack or appetizer.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, increase the red pepper flakes based on your preference.
  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to blend easily with other ingredients.
  • Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to avoid sticking and simplify cleanup.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat briefly in the oven for best texture.
  • You can substitute mozzarella with another mild cheese if desired, but it may slightly alter the texture.
