Whisk olive oil, milk, 1egg, yogurt, salt and pepper in a bowl until combined.

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan. Add the chopped onion and cook until fragrant, 3-5 minutes. Add the spinach, salt and pepper. Close it with a lid. Cook it, in medium heat, until the spinach loses most of its volume, around 5 minutes. Give it a stir and turn the heat off. Let it sit for 15 minutes.

Place the last phyllo dough on top and brush it with 2 tablespoons of the milk mixture.
