Pancake pudding with spinach and cheese

Spinach pancake pudding is a savory dish that combines the delicate taste of pancakes with the nutritional benefits of spinach, thus transforming into a delicious appetizer or a healthy lunch that the whole family will enjoy. This recipe is perfect for bringing a touch of innovation to your menu and making everyday meals a true pleasure.

To start, you will need the following ingredients: 250 g of flour, 3 eggs, 500 ml of milk, a pinch of salt, 300 g of fresh spinach, 200 g of feta cheese, 100 g of sour cream, a small onion, 2 garlic cloves, olive oil, and freshly ground pepper.

The first step in preparing the pancake pudding is to make the pancake batter. In a large bowl, add the flour and salt, then make a well in the center and add the eggs. Slowly mix with a whisk, gradually adding the milk until you obtain a homogeneous mixture. Let the batter rest for 30 minutes to allow it to become more elastic.

Meanwhile, prepare the spinach filling. Wash the spinach well under cold running water and let it drain. In a pan, heat a little olive oil and sauté the finely chopped onion and crushed garlic until golden. Add the spinach and cook for a few minutes until wilted. Remove the pan from the heat and let the filling cool slightly, then add the crumbled feta cheese and mix well.

Now, it's time to make the pancakes. Heat a non-stick skillet and lightly grease it with oil. Pour a ladle of batter and fry the pancake on each side until golden. Repeat the process until you finish the batter.

Once you have all the pancakes, you can start assembling the pudding. In a baking dish, place a layer of pancakes followed by a layer of spinach filling. Continue to alternate the layers until you have used all the ingredients, making sure to finish with a layer of pancakes.

To add extra flavor, you can add sour cream on top and sprinkle a little pepper. Place the dish in the preheated oven at 180°C and let it bake for about 30 minutes until the pudding is golden and firm.

Finally, let the pudding cool for a few minutes before cutting it into portions. Serve it warm, alongside a fresh salad, and enjoy a healthy dish full of flavor that will impress everyone. This spinach pancake pudding is not only a delicious choice but also an excellent way to encourage vegetable consumption among children.

The spinach is washed, boiled, chopped, and mixed with a white sauce made from butter, flour, and sour cream. Meanwhile, the pancakes are prepared. A pan with the bottom the size of the pancake is taken, greased with butter, then a pancake is placed, a layer of spinach puree is added, sprinkled with grated cheese, and this continues until finished, leaving a pancake on top.
