Cheese & Honey Filo Tarts

Desserts, Recipes

INGREDIENTS
1 egg
6oz cream cheese
1/4 cup coarsely grated firm and salty feta
1/3 cup labneh or sour cream
1/8 cup California Sunflower Honey plus more for drizzling on tarts
pinch of salt
1/2 cup butter melted
12 sheets filo dough (approx 9″x12″ sheets; Note: Follow packing instructions for thawing)
1/4 cup toasted pistachios, chopped

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large bowl, beat the egg. Add the cream cheese, feta, labneh, California Sunflower Honey and a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  3. Butter a 12 count cupcake tin.
  4. Prepare your filo. Once you start working with the filo, keep a steady pace so it doesn’t become too soft. Cut each sheet into 6 equal squares.
  5. Place one square into each mold and gently press so that it takes the shape of the muffin tin. Let the edges hang over. Cut another sheet into 6 squares and press into the remaining molds. Brush all with butter. Continue: cutting squares, shape one square into each tin, brush with butter, and repeat until you have six layers in each mold. Do not butter the last layer.
  6. Pour the filling into the molds. Brush the filo edges with butter.
  7. Bake for about 25 minutes until edges are golden brown and the filling has set.
  8. Remove from the oven and cool. With the help up a spatula, gently ease each tart out of the tin and onto a serving plate.
  9. Top each tart with toasted pistachios and a drizzle of California Sunflower Honey .
