My Almond Flour Pie Crust and Zucchini Crust Tomato Spinach Feta Pie are joining forces here today to make this super simple and insanely delicious Spinach and Feta Pie. This pie is:

✔️Low carb thanks to the almond flour crust
✔️Easy to make with only 6 ingredients total
✔️Prepped and ready to be enjoyed in under an hour
✔️More delicious after every bites!

So let’s get to it!

The Crust

The crust here is based off of my original Almond Flour Pie Crust. Though the original recipe does include egg and dairy free options we’re just going to use butter and eggs in the crust since the filling is essentially made up of dairy and eggs as well.

Making the dough is dead easy. Simply whisk together the flour and salt before stirring in some melted butter. Once the butter has been incorporated add the egg and mix until a soft dough forms. You should be able press the dough together to form a ball.

When you’re ready, transfer the dough to a grease pie or tart pan. I recommend using a tart/pie plate with a loose bottom. This will make it easy for you to remove and slice the pie later without worrying about the crust breaking.

Press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan and that’s it. Set the crust aside while you prep the filling as you will bake everything at once.

The Filling

Moving on to the filling – this is even easier to prep as it’s made up of only three ingredients: eggs, spinach and feta.

Start out by wilting the spinach. Just load up a large, non stick skillet with your spinach, cover and let wilt on a medium-low heat. It should only take a minute or two for your spinach mountain to reduce down to the size of a fist.

While the spinach is doing its thing, move on to the eggs and feta. Quickly whisk together your eggs before mixing in the crumbled feta. Not much to it. Once you’re ready, stir in the wilted spinach to combine and then pour into the prepared almond flour crust. Spread the filling evenly over to crust and then pop your pie in the oven for about 30 minutes to bake and set.

When the filling no longer jiggles and the top of the pie and crust have turned gold you’re done. Remove the pie from the oven and let cool about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

And that’s it!

If you’re feeling adventurous I encourage you to play around with the filling. I really love this recipe as is and don’t think it needs much, but there are so many ways you can make it your own. Try adding mushrooms, fresh dill, garlic, sautéed onion – whatever! I like throwing in chopped up sun dried tomatoes and pine nuts when I have them in. If you do change it up a bit – let me know how it goes!

Enjoy!

Instructions

Crust

1. Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C. Lightly grease a 9 inch loose bottom pie/tart pan. Set it aside.
2. Add the almond flour and salt to a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
3. Stir in the butter. Mix until you get a soft, sandy-like texture. I find it easy just using my hands here.
4. Add the egg and mix until a soft dough comes together.
5. Transfer the dough to a 9 inch pie plate. Use your hands to press the dough into the pie dish to form your crust. The dough may feel a little oily at this point.

Filling

1. Add the spinach to large non stick skillet over a medium heat. Cover and let the spinach wilt, 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool a few minutes.

2. Whisk the eggs in a medium sized bowl. Stir in the crumbled feta

3. Mix the spinach into the egg-feta mixture. 

4. Pour the filling over the crust - spread so it bakes evenly. Place in the oven and bake for 30-32 minutes. Check the pie after 20 minutes. If the crust is browning too quickly, cover the top with foil.

5. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes and then slice and serve.

Notes

• Use frozen spinach instead of fresh: Defrost the spinach and squeeze out the excess water before mixing it into the feta + egg mixture.
• Freeze for later: Leftovers can be wrapped up tightly and frozen for up to 3 months. If you want to freeze the whole pie to enjoy at a later time, bake the pie first and let it cool completely before wrapping it up tightly. Let it thaw in the fridge overnight before heating it up again.
