How to prepare the Easter cake recipe in the air fryer

1. First, wash the spinach and place it in a pan without seasoning . Cover with the lid and let it simmer over medium heat. Once tender, drain them and squeeze them with your hands to remove excess water.
2. Chop them with a knife and combine them in a bowl together with an egg, ricotta and grated parmesan. Mix and season with salt and nutmeg.
3. Unroll the puff pastry (we recommend the rectangular one) and spread the filling on half of it, keeping a couple of centimeters from the edge.
4. With the back of the spoon , make two indentations and crack an egg in the center of each.
5. Close the puff pastry, sealing everything around well, then cook at 180°C for about 20 minutes.
6. Let it cool before serving.
