Equipment

  • round cookie cutter

Ingredients

  • 150 grams feta
  • 4 phyllo sheets large, rectangular
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • 4 tablespoons fig jam
  • 25 grams butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey or hot honey

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/ 350 °F.
  • Brush the inside of the muffin tin with melted butter.
  • Fold the rectangular phyllo sheets into thirds.
  • Place the round cookie cutter on top of the folded strips of phyllo.
  • Trace around the cookie cutter with a sharp knife to make the round discs (you'll need eight discs for each appetizer).
  • Brush the phyllo discs on both sides with melted butter.
  • Arrange the discs next to each other in one long line, so they overlap.
  • Spoon a small tablespoon of fig jam onto the middle of the slices.
  • Top with crumbled feta.
  • Sprinkle fresh thyme on top.
  • Fold the discs in half and roll them into a rose.
  • Repeat with the remaining discs.
  • Place the phyllo roses into the muffin tin.
  • Bake for about 12-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
  • Lift carefully with a fork.
  • Place the roses on a serving platter, drizzle with hot honey, and serve.
