Oven Fried Feta Rolls with Chili Honey offer a perfect blend of crispy, gooey, and spicy-sweet flavors. These easy-to-make, oven-baked rolls combine salty feta cheese wrapped in flaky phyllo dough and finished with a drizzle of bold chili honey. Ideal for parties or quick appetizers, they deliver delight in every bite with a healthier twist by baking instead of frying.

Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 200g feta cheese, crumbled
  • Optional: 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, or mint)
  • Optional: 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Wrappers & Assembly

  • 8 sheets phyllo dough
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or olive oil (for brushing phyllo)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Olive oil spray

Chili Honey Topping

  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp chili flakes (adjust based on heat preference)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Feta Filling: Crumble feta cheese into a mixing bowl. If desired, mix in freshly chopped herbs and/or crushed red pepper flakes to enhance flavor.
  2. Assemble the Rolls with Phyllo Dough: Lay one phyllo sheet on a clean surface and brush lightly with melted butter or olive oil to prevent drying. Spoon a small amount of the feta filling near one edge, then roll tightly into a small cylinder. Repeat with remaining sheets and filling. Brush the tops of each roll with beaten egg to promote golden browning.
  3. Oven Fry the Rolls: Place rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray with olive oil for even crisping. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the rolls are golden and crisp on all sides.
  4. Prepare the Chili Honey: While baking, combine honey and chili flakes in a small bowl. Adjust chili flakes to your preferred spice level.
  5. Drizzle and Serve: Once rolls are hot and crispy, remove from oven and generously drizzle chili honey over them. Serve warm for best taste.

Notes

  • Use fresh phyllo dough and cover it with a damp towel to keep it from drying out.
  • Don’t overfill the rolls to prevent bursting during baking.
  • Apply a light coat of olive oil spray or brushing for crispiness without excess fat.
  • Adjust chili flakes in the honey to balance sweetness and heat.
  • Serve immediately while warm for optimal crunchiness and flavor.
