Directions

Prepare the dough: Place yeast, sugar, and water in a mixing bowl. Cover and proof 10 minutes.
Add all remaining dough ingredients. Mix until a smooth dough forms; knead well.
Let dough rise for 30 minutes.
Prepare the filling: In a separate bowl, mix spinach and cheese together.
Prepare the topping: Place butter, milk, and garlic in a small saucepan. Melt over low heat, stirring frequently. (You can also do this in a disposable pan in the oven heated to 200 degrees Fahrenheit.) Remove from heat; stir in seasonings.
Divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a circle. Place about 3 tablespoons filling in the center; pinch dough to enclose and form a ball.
Dip each ball into the butter topping to coat. Arrange in a single layer in a 9×13-inch pan.
Let rise for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until browned.

Tips:
You can use store-bought pizza dough instead of making your own — you’ll need two 20-ounce packages.
