Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ cups grated cheddar cheese
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 4 tablespoons salted butter, melted
- 1 (9 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, cooked and squeezed dry
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
- Stir together all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
- Transfer the spinach mixture to the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes.
- Loosen the edges from the sides of the pan with a knife as soon as they are removed from the oven. Cool slightly before cutting into squares. Serve warm, or freeze to use later.
Notes
- Squeeze the spinach very dry before adding it to the rest of the ingredients. To do so, I like to place the cooked spinach in a dish towel and wring it out over the sink. You'll be amazed by how much water comes out!
- Grate the cheese by hand, rather than purchasing a package of pre-shredded cheese. This extra step is worth the effort, since the hand-grated cheese melts better (and tastes better)!
- If freezing the squares, be sure to allow them to cool completely before wrapping.
- The spinach squares are delicious served warm or at room temperature, so they're great for setting out at a party. You don't have to worry about keeping them warm, and they're not messy or hard to eat.
