Golden, crinkled filo pastry filled with feta, drizzled with honey, and topped with black sesame seeds—this Greek tiropita twist is irresistibly crispy and easy to make.
There’s something magical about the crinkle of golden filo pastry fresh out of the oven — and this Crispy Honey-Feta Crinkled Tiropita captures it perfectly. 🌀
It’s a playful take on the classic Greek tiropita, but instead of a layered pie, this version spirals into crisp, buttery folds of filo, filled with salty feta and finished with a drizzle of sweet honey.
The contrast of textures — crispy filo, creamy feta, and sticky honey — makes it utterly irresistible. Add a sprinkle of black sesame for that nutty pop, and you’ve got a show-stopping snack that’s as easy as it is elegant. 🇬🇷✨
This dish celebrates Greek simplicity — few ingredients, big flavor.
All you need are filo sheets, feta cheese, olive oil, honey, and black sesame seeds.
It’s proof that you don’t need fancy ingredients to create something restaurant-worthy at home.
💡 Pro tip: Brush each filo sheet generously with olive oil — that’s the secret to the perfect crisp.
Serve your crinkled tiropita warm, just as the honey glistens over the flaky pastry.
It’s perfect as a brunch bite, a starter for a Mediterranean dinner, or a cozy evening treat with tea. 🍵
