    Recipe Steps

    Follow the recipe steps below or

    • step 1

      Prepare your ingredients by measuring out the gnocchi, baby spinach, dried cranberries, cream cheese, nutmeg, and Parmesan cheese. Keep olive oil handy for cooking.

    • step 2

      Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the gnocchi and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gnocchi is golden and slightly crispy.

    • step 3

      Add the dried cranberries and a pinch of nutmeg to the pan. Stir and cook for about 1 minute.

    • step 4

      Add the baby spinach to the pan, stirring until it wilts, which should take about 2 minutes.

    • step 5

      Reduce the heat and stir in the cream cheese until it melts and evenly coats the gnocchi and spinach. Add a splash of water or milk if the sauce is too thick.

    • step 6

      Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the dish and stir until fully combined. Let it cook for 1 additional minute.

    • step 7

      Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy your festive one-pan gnocchi with spinach and cranberries!
