By sconelets, I mean baby scones.
This does continue the Baking the Freezer and No Buy March. No ingredients were bought.
Did you know that you can put bags of spinach straight into the freezer? To use as needed in recipes? Me, neither. I read about it a few months ago and when I was not using the bag of spinach for salads one week, I decided to test the hypothesis.
Works like a charm. I’ve done it one of two ways. I have just chucked the entire bag into the freezer with no prep. I have also sautéed the spinach in a dry pan and then froze it when it was cool.
I used the second method today. Worked amazingly well.
I have made these before and they are frequently asked for/reminisced about.
The star of today’s show is not the spinach but rather a baking pan that I already owned. I believe its original intention was as a cake pop pan. It is like a mini muffin tin but the output is round.
I used it over the weekend to use up the mashed potatoes in the fridge and the results were little mashed potato balls of goodness. I thought to myself I have to use this pan more.
Today’s output is little spinach feta balls of goodness.
Did I mention that the pan is non-stick? Do I remember where I got it? Absolutely not.
