For a richer flavor, try using Gruyere or Parmesan cheese in addition to or instead of mozzarella. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the spinach mixture for a subtle kick. These spinach treats can be made ahead of time and reheated before serving. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent soggy cups.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a miniature muffin pan. (5 minutes)
02
StepMelt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned. (8 minutes)
03
StepIn a medium bowl, combine the cooked onion, squeezed spinach, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed. (5 minutes)
04
StepUnroll the buttermilk biscuit dough and separate each biscuit into two thinner rounds. Gently press each round into the prepared miniature muffin pan, forming small cups that extend slightly beyond the rim. (10 minutes)
05
StepFill each biscuit dough cup with the spinach and cheese mixture. Be generous, but avoid overfilling to prevent spillage during baking. (5 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and the filling is lightly browned and bubbly. (15 minutes)
07
StepLet the spinach treats cool in the muffin pan for a few minutes before carefully removing them and serving warm. (5 minutes)
