Description
The Golden Greek Honey Pie beautifully combines the flavors of honey, spices, and a rich, creamy filling all encased in crispy phyllo.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 sheets phyllo dough
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup semolina flour
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup honey, warmed
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Next, take your 9×13-inch baking dish and grease it generously with some of the melted butter.
- Begin layering the phyllo sheets in the prepared dish—seven sheets in total.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the semolina flour, eggs, granulated sugar, whole milk, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until it’s a smooth mixture.
- Once your filling is ready, pour it evenly over the layered phyllo in the baking dish.
- Place the dish in your preheated oven and let it bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
- For the grand finish, drizzle the warm honey over the top of the pie and finish with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
Ensure that your phyllo dough is fully thawed before using, otherwise it may tear easily during assembly.
