Spinach Bacon Cheddar Munchy Cakes

By ebdonahue

When bacon, Cheddar cheese and spinach come together in these savoury snack cakes, smiles are inevitable. Even the pickiest eaters tucked into these with gusto!

Ingredients

• 1 pound package frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed to remove most of the liquid
• 3 cups shredded Cheddar cheese (I prefer extra sharp for this.)
• 1 1/2 cups fine dry bread crumbs (seasoned or plain)
• 6 large eggs
• 1/2 pound of bacon, cooked, drained and crumbled
• 3 tablespoons finely minced onion
• 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard powder (I prefer Coleman's.)
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• Hot sauce for serving

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°.

Line a baking sheet (or two, depending on size) with parchment paper.

Stir all ingredients together until even.

Scoop about 1/4-1/3 cup of the mixture (an amount about equal to the size of a plum) and form into a patty. Place patties on prepared pan.

Repeat until all of the mixture is formed into patties.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the patties after about 15 minutes, until they are all golden brown and crisp on the outside.

Serve hot, warm or cool with your preferred hot sauce.
