Instructions
Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Unfold one puff pastry sheet on the baking sheet. Spread half the ricotta on it, leaving a 1-inch border.
Layer the chopped spinach and mushrooms evenly over the ricotta cheese.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and cold water to make an egg wash.
Brush the edges of the puff pastry with the egg wash. Place the second puff pastry sheet on top, pressing down edges to seal.
Create 4-6 small slits on top of the pastry to allow steam to escape. Brush the top with the remaining egg wash.
Bake in the oven for 25 minutes until the pastry is golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For a different flavor, try adding crumbled feta cheese or sundried tomatoes to the filling. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container and reheated.
