How to Make Spanakopita Spinach Pie By Ina Garten

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large skillet, sauté the onion and garlic in olive oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the dill, mint, and lemon zest.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, feta cheese, ricotta cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Stir the spinach mixture into the cheese mixture.
  5. Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough in the prepared baking dish, letting the edges hang over the sides. Brush with melted butter.
  6. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, brushing each layer with melted butter. Tuck in overhanging edges.
  7. Pour the spinach mixture evenly over the phyllo pastry.
  8. Fold the overhanging phyllo edges over the filling.
  9. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  10. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
