Description

Ingredients

• 1-2 sheets of phyllo pastry (quantity depends on the size of the sheets)
• 8 sprigs of fresh thyme
• 60 g / 2 oz of butter, melted
• 125 g / 4½ oz of goat cheese, creamy
• 4 tsp of honey (lavender honey, if possible)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 180°C / 356°F. Roll out one sheet of the phyllo pastry on a countertop. Brush the surface generously with butter. (Note: Leave some butter for later.) Cut the sheet into 4 squares or rectangles (depending on the size). Place the thyme on the edge of each square (see step-by-step pictures). Fold the edge about 2 cm / ¾ and brush with some butter. Crumble some goat cheese along the opposite edge. Sprinkle a little honey right next to the cheese. Start rolling the pastry on the cheese side, towards the thyme, until they look like a cigar. Place on a baking paper covered baking tray. Brush with the remaining butter. Bake for about 15 minutes, until crispy and golden brown. Serve immediately.
