Why You’ll Love Phyllo Bites

These are the most perfect appetizer. They are so good… crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The toasted almonds bring in that nutty taste and it is epic. The honey adds the best flavor too. I made these for a dinner party and my friends and family LOVED.

How To Prepare Phyllo Bites

🌟 First, take 1/2-1/3 of the phyllo sheets and roll the rest in the plastic wrap to save.

🧈 Secondly, add some melted butter in between a couple of the phyllo sheets. I did about 2-3 tbsp of melted butter.

🧀 Then, add the grated gruyere to the phyllo sheet, all across.

❤️ Roll it up really tightly.

🔪 Then, slice into 12 rounds with a sharp knife.

✨ Add 1/2 tbsp of butter to the bottom of a 12 muffin tin.

💗 Then, add the phyllo bites onto the muffin tin and add 1/2 tbsp butter on top of each one.

🔥 Bake at 400F for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Then, check at the 15 minute mark.

🍯 Then, drizzle honey while hot.

🌿 Lastly, top with chives and toasted almonds.

Substitutions and Variations

  1. You can use any cheese of your choice, such as feta, or brie instead of gruyere.
  2. You can use any nuts of your choice instead of almonds, such as pistachio.

Drizzle honey on the bites while they are still hot, so they absorb it better.

  1. So you use about 10 phyllo sheets? And you put melted butter between every other sheet? So you do that 5 times? Or do I have this wrong? With a new recipe specifics really help me. Thank you!

    1. Hey Anne, I do it every other or every 3 sheets. You honestly don’t have to be very picky with it. It will turn out great as long as you make sure to do it on a few.
