Mini Spinach Pies – A Greek Classic in Handheld Form

Spanakopita is one of Greece’s most beloved savory pies, usually baked in large trays with layers of phyllo. This version, however, is made into individual spinach pies with an easy homemade dough. No need for store-bought phyllo — the dough is simple, soft, and stretches easily by hand.

The filling combines fresh spinach, onions, dill, and feta cheese, giving that authentic Mediterranean flavor. Each pie is hand-shaped, brushed with olive oil, and baked until golden.
