  • 3. Transfer spinach mixture to a prepared baking dish (I sprayed baking dish with Pam).
  • 4. Combine crumbs, 2T. melted butter, oil, salt and pepper. Top spinach with crumbs, packing down to adhere.
  • 5. Bake 20-25 minutes until crumbs are golden and sauce is bubbly.

Tips:

  • Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg or garlic powder to the sauce for extra flavor.
  • Serve the creamed spinach immediately, or it will start to lose its vibrant green color.
  • Creamed spinach is a great side dish for chicken, fish, or pork.
