Ingredients

Dough

½ cup coconut flour
¼ cup butter, softened unsalted
2 eggs beaten
2 tablespoons psyllium husk powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup boiling water

Filling

1 cup cooked spinach
1 small onion peeled & chopped
1 teaspoon lemon rind
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon sumac
¼ cup Feta cheese crumbled
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

Dough

In a bowl, mix the coconut flour, salt and psyllium husk powder together.
Add the softened butter and blend together.
Add the beaten eggs and stir the mixture thoroughly until combined.
Pour in the boiling water and stir until a dough consistency is formed.
Set aside to cool until the dough can be handled.

Filling

Heat the oil in a frying pan on a medium heat and add the onion. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the onion is soft and golden.
Add the spinach, lemon juice, rind, sumac, Feta cheese and black pepper and stir until thoroughly combined.
Set aside to slightly cool.

Assembly

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees.
Take a large ball of the dough and place it between two sheets of parchment paper, slightly flattening it with your hand before rolling it.
Cut a circle out with either a large cookie cutter or a glass (as I did).
Remove the pastry circle and spoon about 1 tablespoon of the spinach Feta mixture onto the circle, slightly over of the middle.
Pinch 2 ends first and then the third to form a pyramid.
Place the spinach feta triangles on a parchment paper lined baking tray and bake for 25 minutes until firm and slightly golden.
Put the spinach feta triangles under a hot grill for 3 to 5 minutes to give them a golden brown finish.
Eat and enjoy!
