My adoration for spanakopita runs somewhere down in my Greek veins! I could eat it throughout the day consistently. Sadly, the customary blend of feta, eggs, and phyllo baked good doesn't fall in accordance with my plant-based way of life. Dread not, this formula is sound, simple to make, and absolutely VEGAN! The spinach and hole filling is the most tedious so you can generally make it ahead of time and stop it for a later date. At the point when it's a great opportunity to cook the choices are unending. I made a couple of various form, whirling the vegetarian phyllo baked good, making an increasingly conventional pie, and might attempt to a greater extent a provincial tart style next time I make it.
I'm going to give you access on somewhat mystery, I put nooch (otherwise called nourishing yeast) on essentially everything! Alright, I realize that is not a mystery, I educate everybody concerning my fixation on nooch. It is only a vegetarian's closest companion, pressed with such a large number of basic nutrients and minerals by what means can you not blend it into each formula.

- 2 tbsp. olive oil + for your phyllo
- 1 medium white onion, finely chopped
- 2 1/2 cups leak, finely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups green onion, finely chopped
- season to taste
- 1 cup fresh dill
- 1 cup fresh parsley
- 1/2 cup fresh mint
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tbsp. vegetable stock paste
- 900 g fresh spinach
- 2 sheets vegan puffed pastry or 1 packet vegan phyllo
INSTRUCTIONS
- The night before making your Spanakopita make sure to remove your phyllo or puffed pastry from the freezer. Let it thaw in the fridge.
- Into a large pot heat your olive oil on medium heat for around 30 seconds, add your onions and leak and sautéed till caramelized and golden brown. Stir often to avoid burning. Once your onions and leaks are ready, around 10 minutes later, add your green onions, dill, parsley, mint, nutritional yeast, seasoning and veg stock paste. Cook for around 2 minutes or until wilted considerably. Now add your spinach, stir till wilted – you want to cook this down till there is no moisture left. Once your spinach is ready, remove from heat let cool for around 10 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425F and set aside a baking sheet. Now we will prepare our phyllo. Have your ¼ cup olive oil ready with a brush to gently coat your phyllo. You want to keep your phyllo moist so I suggest laying it out flat then covering with a damn cloth.
- Onto another cutting board begin by gently placing one sheet of phyllo. This is a very delicate ingredient, so be patient. Coat the whole thing with olive oil, using your brush then repeat that step with another sheet, for 5 layers total. Transfer your Phyllo to an 8×8 pan and pat down till flat, letting any edited hang over. Transfer your cooled mixture to the pan and flatten with a spoon, don’t down any hanging phyllo bits. Repeat the steps for the top 5 layers of phyllo and fold layers inward for neat, sleek look.
- Place in freezer for 1 hour before baking.
- Once the pan has cooled, place onto baking sheet and brush with olive oil just one more time. Bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown and perfectly crispy!
- Enjoy!
