Greek Feta & Honey Warm Pastry
By: Tal Metuko
Prep time: 10 minutes
Yield: 3 pastries, 13”x9” baking pan
Ingredients:
1 package of Tnuva’s Light Feta Cheese, cut into 3 rectangles (about 3”x4”)
Tnuva Maadanot Frozen Puff Pastry Dough, thawed, and cut into 3 rectangles (about 9”x10”)
6 teaspoons honey
3 tablespoon olive oil
3 teaspoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
Optional: 1 teaspoon black cumin (nigella) seeds
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 ⁰F. Cover the baking pan with baking paper.
2. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan on medium heat for 1-2 minutes, constantly shaking the pan to prevent the seeds from burning.
3. Spread the dough on the flat surface and brush with olive oil (make sure that each sheet is evenly covered).
4. Place the feta rectangles in the middle of the dough sheets. Fold the sides over the cheese, covering it completely. Cut off excess dough if needed. Brush the resulting pastries with olive oil and transfer to the baking pan – folded side down. Bake for about 20 minutes, until the dough is golden-brown.
5. Remove from oven. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds, thyme and nigella seeds. Serve warm.
