Tips
Add fresh herbs to the filling (dill, parsley and oregano will go well with ricotta and spinach).

If you prefer to add onion flavor, add green onions or chives.

For a truly Greek flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the filling.

To add more salt, add crumbled feta cheese to the topping.

You can also use frozen spinach instead of baby spinach. Allow the spinach to thaw completely, then squeeze out any excess moisture.

How to Store Spanakopita Rolls
Refrigerate the rest for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven for 10 minutes. Microwaving them will make them soggy.

Can you freeze Spanakopita rolls?
Yes, you can! Once assembled, place the uncooked rolls on a baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours. Transfer to a Ziploc bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to cook them, add 10 to 15 minutes to the cooking time.

Can I make spanakopita buns in an Airfryer?
If you can! Place the buns in a single layer in the fryer basket and fry at 200°C/400°F for about 20 minutes, until the buns are golden brown and cooked through.

Can I make this ahead of time?
If you can! To make the spanakopita rolls ahead of time, prepare the filling and assemble the puff pastry rolls. Place on a baking sheet. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Bake, adding 5 to 10 minutes to the baking time.
