Here’s what you’ll need to make these delightful Baked Feta and Prosciutto Phyllo Cups:
Ingredients:
- 8 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 4 oz prosciutto, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 30 mini phyllo shells (found in the frozen section of most grocery stores)
To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, chopped prosciutto, fresh parsley, olive oil, dried oregano, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Next, arrange the mini phyllo shells on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a small spoon or a piping bag, carefully fill each phyllo shell with the feta and prosciutto mixture. Be generous with the filling, as it will shrink slightly during baking.
Once all the phyllo cups are filled, place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the phyllo shells are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
These Baked Feta and Prosciutto Phyllo Cups are best enjoyed warm, straight from the oven. Serve them as a stunning appetizer at your next gathering, or enjoy them as a satisfying snack anytime you crave a burst of flavor. Their crispy exterior and creamy, savory filling are sure to delight your taste buds and leave you craving for more.
