Phyllo Appetizers<\/p>\nPhyllo Appetizers<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Feta – Get your hands on a good quality block of feta for the best results.<\/p>\n
Phyllo sheets – It’s easiest to work with room temperature phyllo pastry.<\/p>\n
Fresh thyme – Fresh thyme adds a herby finish to the final dish.<\/p>\n
Fig jam – I used a green fig marmalade from Wilkin & Sons, but you can use any jam you like. Strawberry or tomato jam – even hot honey would all be delicious options.<\/p>\n
Melted butter – I love using salted butter to add flavor and balance, but you can use unsalted butter or olive oil, too.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C \/ 350\u00b0F. Cut round discs of phyllo with the cookie cutter. Brush melted butter on both sides of the discs. Arrange the discs side by side, so they overlap. Spread with jam and top with crumbled feta. Sprinkle with fresh thyme. Roll into a tight rose. Bake in a buttered muffin tin for 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy. Serve.<\/p>\n

Possible Variations<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Swap the cheese – Replace the feta with thin slices of Brie, or a creamy goat cheese for a different taste.<\/p>\n
Add crushed pistachios, pecans, or sesame seeds – Sprinkle chopped nuts or seeds on top of the feta and jam for extra crunch.<\/p>\n
Replace the jam – Use tomato chutney, pesto, olive tapenade, chili jam, or omit.<\/p>\n
Use puff pastry – Swap phyllo for puff pastry for a light, flaky texture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
