Savory Spinach Feta Puffs
These Savory Spinach Feta Puffs are my go-to comfort snack, bursting with flavor and a delightful flaky texture. I love how they combine wholesome spinach with a creamy, plant-based feta that feels indulgent yet nourishing.
I remember the first time I made these puffs for my friends during a cozy gathering.
The way they devoured them and asked for the recipe made my heart smile!
It’s such a joy to create dishes that bring people together, and these puffs are perfect for sharing.
Plus, they’re super easy to whip up and can be made ahead of time—ideal for busy days!
My tip?
Don’t skip the nutritional yeast; it adds the cheesy depth that makes these puffs truly special.

Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using store-bought plant-based vegan feta for convenience, but homemade versions with blended nuts and herbs work beautifully too. You can find puff pastry in the freezer section—just make sure it’s vegan! If you want to amp up the flavor, consider adding some herbs like dill or oregano to the spinach mixture.
Tips & Notes
- •If you want to make these ahead of time, you can prepare them and freeze them before baking. Just pop them in the oven directly from the freezer, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.
- •For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the filling!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I throw in some sun-dried tomatoes for a tangy twist!
- •You could easily swap the spinach for kale or even mushrooms for a different flavor profile.
Storage & Freezing
Store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days. To reheat, just pop them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes until warmed through. Enjoy them warm for that fresh-out-of-the-oven vibe!
