Easy Crust-less Spinach and Feta Pie



A simple Greek inspired pie combining savory flavors such as spinach, feta, asagio, dill and scallions. Perfect to take to a potluck!

Served with a salad, you can turn this into a main dish, or cut it into smaller wedges to serve as an appetizer. If you use full fat feta cheese, the fat only increases by 1 gram, and the points increase to 4 per serving. Enjoy this warm or at room temperature.

  1. Wow, this sounds fantastic! I have been reading your blog for quite a while now but I think this is my first comment. I have some digestive issues with cheese so might have to play around with those a bit, but I love how this recipe packs in so many greens!! Lovely photos!

    3. I use Daiya cheese for recipes and it's completely non dairy! I made Gina's zucchini pizza but I put the diced zucchini in a casserole dish, mixed in sliced onions, put 1 can diced no salt tomatoes, italian seasoning and baked it covered. I took the foil off and put 3/4 cup daiya mozzarella cheese over it and it melted beautifully! And the dish did taste like pizza. I converted the recipe on WW and it was like 2 point per serving.

  13. yum! do you have any tips for squeezing the liquid out of thawed spinach? i don't think i've ever been taught the correct way to do it and it seems like a waste a lot of paper towel doing it my way! thanks,

    1. Do you have a potato ricer? That's worked best for me -- makes it really easy (Google it if you're not sure what it is. Someone mentioned it on this website before and I had to google it :-)

      Delete
    2. I use a colander in the sink and a spatula. I basically squeeze the liquid out as I press the spinach all around and up the sides. It takes some time, but it isn't as wasteful. Hope that helps!

      Delete
    3. I use a very light (and freshly washed) dishtowel - throw it in the center of the towel, wrap it up and squeeze the liquid out. Twisting it in the end REALLY dries it up!

    1. I was wondering how it might taste with goat cheese...

    2. I'll bet that small-curd cottage cheese and maybe even ricotta would work very well in place of the feta. I'd probably drain it in a fine-mesh strainer a bit first (save the drained liquid in case you think the mixture is too dry after it's all mixed together). You might need to adjust the salt if one cheese is saltier than the other.

    3. ....or Mexican 4-cheese blend, Monterrey Jack, Pepper Jack, Gruyere, mozzarella, a Mexican melting cheese...

    1. You could use fresh spinach, just use a lot more as it shrinks. Not sure exatly how much you'll need to get the equivalent, maybe one large bunch?

      Delete
    2. I think if you use fresh spinach you will need to lightly steam it first to get the water out (about 2-4 minutes in a steamer basket) - otherwise the pie will be too mushy. I just got a huge bunch of organic spinach at our local farmer's market and this recipe is a perfect use for it! Love your blog, Gina!

  36. I think the missing word between "and... in the pie dish" is Asiago cheese, because Gina tells what to do with the ingredients in the order they are listed.

  42. To LA GAL, ....Isn't it WONDERFU?
    I was the person who posted the comment about the potato ricer which squeezes out ALL OF THE WATER from the defrosted frozen spinach. I posted it during Thanksgiving for Gina's Makeover Spinach Gratin. This is what I wrote: To the person who has trouble squeezing the water out of frozen spinach.
    Simple solution that is amazing: buy a potato ricer (contraption for making mashed potatoes). Once the spinach has defrosted, place in the ricer, press the handles together, and like magic, all the water comes out without any effort.
    Gina said she was going to get one for XMAS. I wonder if she did and does she love it also!!

    1. 10oz is 10oz? So 10oz fresh cooked down should equal 10oz frozen I would think.

    2. I found this on the net:

      4 cups leaves, 6 ounces

      1lb fresh = 1 cup cooked

      15 to 16 oz. can = 1 1/2 - 2 cups

      10 oz bag = 6 cups of leaves, 1 1/4 cups cooked, 2/3 cup cooked & squeezed dry

      10oz frozen = 1 1/2cups cooked

  44. I just made this and I think there is something wrong with the recipe...My crust ended up on top. Are you supposed to put the flour mixture in first and then the spinach? Or should I have mixed the 2 togeather? I am sure it will taste the same it just looks funny.

    1. i was confused about this too b.c i don't think it said specifically what to do...so i put the spinach mixture in the pie plate, then poured the flour mixture in and mixed it all in the pie plate and baked it in the oven. it came out great and looked like the pic on here.

    1. I think Gina forgot to mention to take the spinach out of the pie plate and mix with the egg mixture. Mine is in the oven now and I'm having the same problem - the egg mixture is sitting on the top browning. Now I'm not as excited after reading your comment. I knew I should have gone with my gut and mixed them together. :( Also, remember to add your asiago cheese - it's not mentioned in the steps.

      Delete
    2. Funny I am now reading your comments, but I poured it in and didn't mix it first. Not sure why I didn't have that issue but I guess mixing it all together would work out fine.

      Delete
  53. I just took this out of the oven. I'm a little disappointed. I never say this about SkinnyTaste, as everything I make always comes out perfectly with your recipes. I think this recipe needs some additions. We need to know if the spinach and feta mixture should be combined with the egg/flour mixture. Mine is all brown on top (wheat flour). It's still too hot to do anything with it, but my husband and I figure we'll just flip it upside down and eat it with the "crust" on the bottom. From your picture of the completed spinach pie, this shouldn't have happened. Let us know! :)

  54. Ok, I made a new one where I combined all the ingredients before I baked....came out PERFECT!

  58. We mixed it together in the pie plate and it turned out fine. Good thing it's so low points, I kept picking at it ;) We used Red Mills GF flour and it worked out fine. Next time I might just use egg whites instead of whole eggs.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Gina, this turned out great! I think some people are having trouble with the directions as written. I mixed the spinach, dill, parsley, scallions, and cheeses together. Separately, I mixed the oil, flour, baking powder, eggs, and milk. I combined those two mixtures and added the salt and pepper. Baked for 28 minutes and it came out perfectly. I LOVE cheese and garlic and almost added some (more) of each, but now I'm glad that I stuck to the recipe. It's healthier without the extra cheese and super tasty as is! (I replaced the Asiago with Parmigiano Reggiano, since that's what I had on hand.)

    ReplyDelete
  60. Carolyn's mixing comments are spot on. Mine was delicious too.

    Regarding the size of the pie plate/ pie dish/ pie pan:

    I used a 7 1/2" by 1 1/2" quiche dish and the spinach mixture came almost up to the top. It cooked off as a nice, thick (high) quiche as shown in Gina's lovely picture. It would also be very nice, although not quite as high, when cooked for a slightly shorter time in an 8 1/2" wide quiche dish or pie plate.

    Personally, I think the portion sizes are a bit small. I'd think that one recipe would feed 4 to 6. But maybe that was because it was so good and we were hungry. It might serve 6 with a vegetable side and a salad.

    In any case, it was delicious and I will definitely make it again.

  61. This was a success at our house. Comments about how good supper smelled could be heard before we ate. Then, it tasted as good as it smelled. :) I used regular whole wheat flour (cannot find white whole wheat where I live in Canada) and it turned out well.

  63. Just made this for dinner and it was FABULOUS! Made my whole kitchen smell wonderful. I added a (well drained) can of quartered artichoke hearts and the zest and juice of half a lemon. For those having troubles with the eggy crust, I took another commenter's advice and mixed all the ingredients together before putting it into the pie plate. Served it with some potato pancakes and it's going into my spring recipe collection. Thanks so much!

  67. This came out really good! The small amount of flour made for a really tasty consistency within the pie. How I handled the two separate mixtures: I put the spinach mixture in the pie plate, then when I added the flour/ egg mixture, I stirred gently but A LOT, until I was sure it was completely mixed. Two thumbs up, as usual. :-)

  74. I made this tonight and it was so good! I used a bit more than 1/2 cup of full-fat feta and I used whole milk instead of non-fat (we're not on WW, but love your site for great tasting recipes!). I also didn't have fresh dill, so I used dried. I might add some minced garlic next time I make it, but honestly, this was not lacking in flavor at all. My husband loved it too! And with a nice salad, this was a great dinner. Thanks Gina!

  75. Just put this in the oven. I used dried spices because I am attempting to use 'em up in my spice cabinet. I doubled the recipe, tripled the spinach, used fat free feta and added one lowfat turkey sausage to the spinach. I can tell that this one is a winner! Gina, your blog is quick becoming one of my all time favorite places to find recipes!

  79. As noted by others, the directions for this recipe don't make sense and no size reference is given for the pie plate. Common sense told me to mix everything except the dry ingredients in a bowl. In a small bowl, I blended the flour and baking powder, mixed it into the wet ingredients, then dumped the whole thing in a 9" glass pie plate. My pie is much shorter than the one shown. Being that 9" is a standard pie plate, I am assuming the one used by Gina must be smaller. The pie itself was very good but for my tastes, could use a good punch of flavor. Next time I will add garlic and use traditional Greek sheep's milk feta instead. It has much more flavor than the cow's milk variety.

  80. Have made this a couple of times and its delicious. It even tastes fab cold. Will be perfect for as picnic food. I added garlic to mine both times and forgot the baking powder each time but it turned out great, soooo easy to make. Thanks for the recipe :)

    ReplyDelete
  83. Made this for dinner tonight and it was DELICIOUS. I made a couple of changes: added a 1/3 cup chopped white onion because I did not have enough scallions. I used low fat evaporated milk and add a bit of water to the bowl (by eye I would say a 1/4 cup) to thin out the mixture. I also added two TBSP of garlic.

    Next time I am going to makeup sure I use the right amount of scallions and I will keep in the white onion. I will also add more dill,parsley and dry mushrooms (that have been re-hydrated).

    I considered adding another 10 oz of squeezed spinach, I am glad I didn't because it would have drowned out the cheese flavor. I was also going to substitute the whole egg for egg whites only and glad I did't as well.

    Mine came out looking just like the photo and It was a huge hit.

    Cant wait to eat some for breakfast with sausage.

    This will be in heavy rotation.

  96. So I went to make this recipe and got confused. Is it supposed to be 10oz of spinach before or after it was squeezed dry. I took a 10oz bag and then squeezed it out and it went to 5oz...so I got really confused. Any clarification would be great. Thanks!

  97. This is delicious!! It tastes like spanikopita without the fat. I served it with some whole wheat flat bread to make up for it. YUM YUM. I used dried dill because trader joes didn't have fresh. I used 1/2 what it called for. It was too salty (and we like salty) so next time i'll use less. Thanks!! YUM

  99. I love to this. It is so easy and tasty. Can you recommend other ingridients instead of Spinach and Feta? Because I´ve been doing it the last time and I would like to try something else but still so easy. thank you. Nuria

  102. Gina,

    How long do you think this recipe would need to bake if using mini cupcake pans for an appetizer? I noticed a couple of people asked this already, but I don't see an answer. Thanks!

  103. I did make these in cupcake pans, i forgot the flour and baking soda. however they were like little fritta and tasted awesome. I was eating them for breakfast.

  104. Delicious! My husband and son loved it as well. I used Gluten Free Bisquick baking mix instead of the flour & baking powder.

  105. Gina you need to update the instructions!

    A few changes I made:
    I used fresh spinach - chopped it and steamed it. I used a little less a cup and a half (steamed)
    I used dried herbs since I didn't have fresh on hand, I should have used a bit less.
    I used whole wheat flour because that's all I had on hand
    I added some chopped garlic cloves and granulated garlic (we LOVE garlic)

    I mixed the first set of ingredients in one bowl then the crust ingredients in another bowl and combined both before putting them in the pie dish.

    Mine came out much shorter than the picture as well but otherwise it looked pretty much the same. I think I used an 8" pie plate.

    I would definitely be making this again.
