I just tried these last night. Wow! So yummy! My hubby, who doesn't really care for spinach, loved them too! Thanks so much for posting!

Oh, cool, I was looking for something for my veggie husband to munch on during the game tomorrow. Perfect!

And thanks for the warning; I'll be putting them on a Silpat mat.

I made them. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but as they cooked all the egg and butter came out of them. I had little islands of spinach surrounded by an ocean of egg mixture.

They were still okay, I guess, but I'd love to know what the heck I did wrong!

I got little halos on mine too so I reduced the amount of eggs in half. Plus, you want to make sure the spinach is very dry which is hard to do. HTH

I made these, but I didn't cook the spinach. I thawed it in a sieve over the sink and then squeezed out as much water as possible (probably could have still gotten more out but oh well).

Next time I think I think I'll add some crushed pork rinds or almond flour to help hold their shape better. Mine flattened out and were more like spinach disks or spinach domes rather than spinach balls.

Other than losing their shape in the oven I loved the taste and texture!

The only minor problem was that they stuck to the baking sheet like glue, so I think next time, I might make this into a spinach pie and just slice it... or maybe bake them in muffin cups.

Great recipe; that's a keeper.
