Instructions
- 1.Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish with olive oil to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. This provides a richer flavor to the bake and helps achieve crispy edges.
- 2.In a medium-sized pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and sauté for 2-3 minutes until just wilted and bright green. This quick sauté intensifies the spinach's flavor and reduces excess moisture, preventing a soggy bake.
- 3.In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them gently until the whites and yolks are fully combined. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper, and the oregano. This ensures that the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the dish.
- 4.Arrange the sautéed spinach at the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Evenly distribute the crumbled feta over the spinach. Pour the whisked eggs over the spinach and feta, ensuring the ingredients are evenly coated. This layering technique ensures each bite has a balance of flavor.
- 5.Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes until the eggs are set and the edges are golden. A beautifully set egg will jiggle slightly in the center when shaken, but the edges should be firm and lightly browned. Allow to cool for a minute or two before serving for easy slicing.
