Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • Puff Pastry Sheets – 1 package (thawed if frozen)
  • Feta Cheese – 1 cup, crumbled
  • Hot Honey – 3 tablespoons, plus extra for drizzling
  • Crushed Red Pepper Flakes – 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste)
  • Olive Oil – 2 tablespoons, for brushing
  • Fresh Herbs (Optional) – 1 tablespoon, chopped oregano or thyme

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Puff Pastry: Begin by thawing the puff pastry if using frozen. Roll it out lightly on a floured surface to smooth any creases and allow for easy cutting. The dough should be cold but pliable.
  2. Crumble the Feta Cheese: In a bowl, crumble the feta cheese evenly so it’s ready to be generously sprinkled. This ensures every roll gets a creamy bite.
  3. Assemble the Rolls: Cut the puff pastry into evenly sized squares. Place feta crumbles in the center of each square, drizzle a small amount of hot honey, and sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes for heat. Fold or roll the dough around the filling, sealing the edges tightly.
  4. Brush with Olive Oil and Optional Herbs: Lightly brush the tops of the assembled rolls with olive oil for a golden finish. Sprinkle fresh herbs if using for an aromatic touch.
  5. Bake Until Golden and Crispy: Place the rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until they’re puffed up and golden brown.
  6. Drizzle Additional Hot Honey Before Serving: Once out of the oven, let them cool slightly and finish with a fresh drizzle of hot honey for that signature sweet heat.

Notes

  • Chill the Dough: Keep the puff pastry cold until just before baking to maintain flakiness.
  • Don’t Overfill: Too much feta can cause the rolls to leak; use a moderate amount for clean edges.
  • Customize Your Heat: Adjust the crushed red pepper and hot honey amounts for your preferred spice level.
  • Use Homemade Hot Honey: Infuse honey with chili flakes overnight to elevate the flavor.
  • Serve Warm: These rolls taste best fresh from the oven, so serve right away for maximum crunch.
