Greek Crispy Phyllo Baked Feta (Vegan Alternative)

Prep Time 5 minutes
Servings: 2 servings
Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: Greek, Lacto-vegetarian, Vegetarian

Ingredients
  

  • 150 g package of feta cheese (I split a 150g package in two for this recipe)
  • 2 sheets phyllo dough
  • olive oil
  • black and white sesame seeds
  • honey or agave syrup

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 180℃ and prepare a baking sheet.
  2. I used one sheet of filo/phyllo dough per piece of feta. In other words, one 75 g feta rectangle wrapped in one sheet of filo. This is a personal preference though, if you want more crunch you can use more dough.
  3. Place one sheet out flat and brush it lightly with olive oil. This will make it easy to fold and wrap around the feta.
  4. Place the feta near the smaller end of the dough, a few centimetres up from the bottom.
  5. Fold the bottom of the sheet over the feta and then the sides. Roll the feta upwards along the sheet until the feta is completely wrapped by the whole phyllo sheet. Repeat with the next piece.
  6. Then brush the outside with some more olive oil and sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds on the feta parcels.
  7. Bake the feta pockets for about 20 minutes or until they are completely golden brown.
  8. Once they are out of the oven, drizzle honey over the phyllo wrapped feta.
  9. Enjoy!! :)
