My version of a nice cheese little spinach cake from EatingWell. The sit time is important or they will not hold together. These are moist, light and tender. I used a knife and spoon to remove from tin and had no problems. **5 minute sit time not included in cook time**
Ingredients:
10 ounces baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
1/2 cup egg beaters egg substitute
1 fresh garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
pam cooking spray
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F
2. Pulse spinach in three batches in a food processor until finely chopped.
3. In medium bow. mix spinach, ricotta, Parmesan, eggbeaters, garlic, salt and pepper.
4. Coat 8 cups of a muffin tin with Pam cooking spray.
5. Divide the spinach mixture among the 8 cups.
6. Bake the spinach cakes until set, about 20 minutes.
7. Let stand in the pan for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges with a knife and gently lift out.
8. Server warm, sprinkle with more Parmesan. A little fresh raw tomato basil sauce is nice with these.
