Ingredients
- 2 sheets of puff pastry
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 egg, beaten
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, chopped parsley, chopped dill, chopped green onions, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet of puff pastry to a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3mm).
- Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles from the rolled-out pastry. The size of the circles will depend on how big you want your pies to be.
- Place a spoonful of the feta cheese mixture onto one half of each circle of pastry.
- Fold over the other half of the pastry circle to cover the filling and press the edges together to seal.
- Repeat the process with the remaining puff pastry sheet and feta cheese mixture.
- Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the tops of the pies with the beaten egg to give them a golden color.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pies are puffed up and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the pies cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve the savory feta pies warm and enjoy!
