The Crispiest Greek Tiropita Twist 🧀🍯
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. 🇬🇷✨
