Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F. Brush a 12-cup muffin tin with melted butter.

  2. Step 2

    Stack 2 phyllo sheets, brush the top with butter. Press into a muffin cup, letting edges flare up. Repeat with remaining phyllo and 6 more cups.

  3. Step 3

    Bake cups until golden and crispy, 8–10 minutes. Remove and cool slightly.

  4. Step 4

    Heat remaining butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds.

  5. Step 5

    Add spinach and cook, stirring often, until wilted and any liquid evaporates, 2–3 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Stir in feta, salt, and pepper. Spoon filling into phyllo cups. Serve warm.
