Crispy Pies with Spinach, Pine & Raisins

Make and share these mini pies, wrapped in crisp crust phyllo pastry sheets, with delicious filling and easy process of making them. Roasted pine nuts, roasted sesame seeds and raisins in their filling give a completely different taste to these individual pies from the classic version of a spinach pie, at least as we know most.
These pies were made with frozen spinach that often solves our hands in preparations for banquets or fast cooking by students, workers and not only.

Apple Strudel

Although the contenders of its origin are the Austrians and Germans it does not concern us here, since pretty much all Central Europe and the Balkans have to show similar "pies" in roll form and fruit inside. Infinite variations but the combination of thin, crisp phyllo pastry sheet in layered form of the roll and the soft, sweet fruit inside is the winner of taste.
Wonderful aromas, mild acidic flavors, sweet surprises from the presence of the jam & raisins and very crispy phyllo pastry sheet make this dessert excellent. The almond ground offers refined tones on the palate.
