Feta Phyllo Bites with Hot Honey Directions

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