Spinach Cake Recipes

PARMESAN SPINACH CAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pulse spinach in three batches in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add ricotta (or cottage cheese), Parmesan, eggs, garlic, salt and pepper; stir to combine.
• Coat 8 cups of the muffin pan with cooking spray. Divide the spinach mixture among the 8 cups (they will be very full).
• Bake the spinach cakes until set, about 20 minutes. Let stand in the pan for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges with a knife and turn out onto a clean cutting board or large plate. Serve warm, sprinkled with more Parmesan, if desired.

SPINACH FRITTERS (RACHAEL RAY)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the spinach, onion, eggs, the flour and cumin; season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a frying pan. Spoon heaping tablespoons of the spinach batter into the oil. Cook the fritters until crisp and browned, about 2 minutes on each side.
