My love for spinach pie runs deep in my Greek veins! I could eat it all day every day. Unfortunately, the traditional mix of feta, eggs, and phyllo pastry doesn't fall in line with my plant-based lifestyle. Spanakopita or spinach pie is probably one of the best-known of all traditional Greek dishes and hands down one of the most delicious.

Steps to make Vegan Spinach Pie:
  1. For the filling: Start off by making a roux: melt margarine in a pot. Add chickpea flour and whisk. Slowly add in milk. Whisk vigorously to break up clumps. Cook for a few minutes.
  2. Next, add spinach, onion, water, stock cube and spices. Cook until spinach has thawed and the mixture has reduced to a thick paste.
  3. Mix in the soy yogurt. Set aside to cool.
  4. For the pie crust: combine all ingredients in a Tupperware box. Cover with a tight lid. Shake vigorously until a ball of dough forms.
  5. Put the ball of dough in the center of a parchment-lined pan. Spread it out with your knuckles. The dough is very forgiving, but take your time with this step. Get the crust as thin as possible without leaving any holes. Patch up any mistakes.
  6. Prick your crust with a fork and blind bake it at 200°C for 5-10 min, just until the dough gets a bit firm.
  7. Pour spinach filling inside the crust and bake it at 180°C for 20 min, then at 200°C for 15 min or until filling is set and crust is golden brown. If the edges are starting to burn before the filling has set, cover your pie with aluminum foil.
  8. Let cool for 10 min and enjoy :)

Spanakopita or spinach pie is probably one of the best-known of all traditional Greek dishes and hands down one of the most delicious. Its traditionally made without cheese so, bonus, authentically vegan too! A handful of simple ingredients - fresh dill, mint, peppery chopped scallions, gorgeous green leafy spinach and you're good to go. Fill the center with a few tbsp of spinach filling and press the sides together.
