Feta Phyllo Bites with Hot Honey Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Use only 2-3 sheets of phyllo dough per cup to reduce points. Brush each layer lightly with melted light butter.
- Cut the layered phyllo into 12 squares and gently press each square into the muffin tin cups.
- In a mixing bowl, combine reduced-fat feta, fat-free cream cheese, dill, lemon zest, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Spoon about a tablespoon of the cheese mixture into each phyllo cup.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let the bites cool slightly. Drizzle with the sugar-free maple syrup mixture for a spicy-sweet finish.
- Serve warm.
