Good to know

Chef's tip

If you want even more flavor, add a little grated cheese (like Parmesan or Gruyère) on top before baking! It gives a delicious golden, crispy crust. 🧀✨

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Up to 3 months once baked. Wrap tightly in portions.

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keeps 3 to 4 days max in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Filling can be made the day before and kept in the fridge. Fully baked tart keeps well.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Oven 160°C, 15-20 min. Air fryer 150°C, 8-10 min for crispness. Microwave possible, alters texture.

Variations

Add pine nuts or walnuts on top.
Serve with a green salad.
Replace the feta with goat cheese.

Mistakes to avoid

Salting as usual: salt the custard lightly, the feta is already salty.
Forgetting to prick the pastry bottom with a fork.
Not sautéing the spinach properly: cook it with the onion before spreading it over the pastry.

Frequently asked questions

How do you make a spinach and feta tart?

Sauté the onion, garlic and spinach in olive oil, spread them over the pricked pastry, crumble the feta over, then pour on the mixture of 3 eggs and 200 ml of cream. Bake for 30 minutes at 180°C.

Should you salt the tart custard?

Salt the egg-and-cream custard lightly, since the feta is already salty. Add pepper and, if you like, a pinch of nutmeg, before gently pouring it over the spinach and feta.

Can you serve the spinach tart cold?

Yes, the tart is eaten hot or cold. Let it cool for a few minutes before cutting it, then serve it with a green salad if you like.

What pastry should you use for the spinach tart?

This recipe uses a shortcrust pastry, rolled out in a tart pan and pricked with a fork. It holds the spinach and feta filling and the egg-and-cream custard, baked 30 minutes at 180°C.
