Poffertjes are a traditional Dutch treat that are similar to mini pancakes. They are usually served with powdered sugar and butter, but this version incorporates spinach and cheese for added nutrition and flavor. Spinach Poffertjes are a fun and easy way to switch up your breakfast routine and start your day off on a healthy note.

Instructions

1.	Put the spinach in a blender and blend until the spinach is finely chopped.
2.	In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, salt, and enough milk to make a thick batter.
3.	Add the spinach and cheese to the bowl and mix until well combined.
4.	Heat a poffertjes pan over medium-high heat and lightly grease with some butter.
5.	Pour some batter into each poffertjes mold, filling them about 2/3 full.
6.	Cook the poffertjes for about 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottom.
7.	Flip the poffertjes using a fork or skewer, and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.
8.	Repeat steps 5-7 until all the batter is used up.
