Ingredients You’ll Need

To whip up a batch of these gooey, golden crisps, gather the following ingredients:

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped – Fresh spinach gives this recipe color, nutrition, and depth. You can use frozen, but thaw and squeeze out the moisture first.
1 cup cream cheese, softened – The creamy base that holds everything together.
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese – Brings the classic stretchy melt to the crisps.
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese – Adds a salty, umami punch.
1 teaspoon garlic powder – Enhances the savory flavor.
1/2 teaspoon onion powder – For that hint of depth and aroma.
1/2 teaspoon salt – Essential seasoning.
1/4 teaspoon black pepper – A touch of spice to balance the cheese.
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional) – For a gentle kick.
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese – Sprinkled on top to create that perfectly browned, crispy finish.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This ensures easy removal and zero sticking.

Step 2: Mix the Filling

In a large mixing bowl, combine:

Chopped spinach
Cream cheese
Mozzarella
Parmesan
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Salt
Black pepper
Red pepper flakes (if using)

Use a spatula or spoon to mix until everything is evenly incorporated into a thick, creamy mixture.

Step 3: Scoop & Shape

Use a tablespoon to scoop portions of the spinach mixture onto your prepared baking sheet. Space each scoop about 2 inches apart, as they will spread slightly while baking.

Flatten each mound slightly with the back of the spoon to form round, crisp shapes.

Step 4: Top with Cheddar

Sprinkle a pinch of shredded cheddar cheese on top of each crisp. This creates the golden, crispy layer that makes these irresistible.

Step 5: Bake

Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cheese is bubbling. If you want them extra crispy, bake for an additional 5 minutes—but watch closely to avoid burning.

Step 6: Cool & Serve

Let the crisps cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before removing. This helps them firm up for that perfect crunch.
