Description
Flaky, golden mini triangles filled with creamy semolina custard and soaked in citrus-honey syrup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (16 oz) phyllo dough, thawed
- ½ cup semolina flour
- 2 ½ cups whole milk
- ¾ cup sugar (divided)
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Zest from 1 lemon
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 cinnamon stick

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, heat milk and ½ cup sugar until steaming. Slowly whisk in semolina, cooking until thick. Remove from heat and stir in eggs, vanilla, and lemon zest. Let cool slightly.
- Keep phyllo dough covered with a damp towel. Melt the butter and keep warm for brushing.
- Cut phyllo into 3-inch-wide strips. Brush one strip with butter, place a spoonful of custard at one end, and fold into triangles. Repeat and place on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
