Raspberry And Goat Cheese Phyllo Bundles

Total Time: 45 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• 130 g raspberries (or other)
• 56 g goat cheese (to taste)
• 9 sheets phyllo pastry (18 half sheets)
• 9 g canola oil, butter-flavoured . roughly 1/2 to 1 second of spray per 1/2 sheet
• 18 g honey, approximately

Recipe

• 1 place frozen berries in a dish and let sit for about 5 minutes.
• 2 puree berries in blender.
• 3 add goat cheese to berry puree and blend until a consistency of frozen yogurt.
• 4 if using a large blender, remove mixture to a small bowl for easier handling.
• 5 place berry mixture in freezer.
• 6 unroll thawed phyllo roll and cut full sheets in half crosswise. place desired amount of half sheets onto counter top or a cookie pan and cover with a sheet of parchment paper larger enough to cover entire phyllo sheets, then place a dampened cloth on top of the parchment paper. the parchment will keep the cloth from sticking to the phyllo.
• 7 cover a cookie pan with a sheet of parchment paper ( wax paper is fine here too).
• 8 place 1 phyllo sheet (half sheet) onto the parchment. brush with butter or spray with butter-flavored canola oil. about 1/2 a second to 1 second of spray over the entire phyllo sheet should be enough. brush the spray afterwards.
• 9 place another phyllo sheet on top of the previous and coat it the same. repeat for approximately 4 more sheets.
• 10 once you have 6 (or more if desired) sheets, cut into 6 smaller squares (or 4 larger if you want larger bundles).
• 11 remove berry mixture from the freezer. place a heaping teaspoon onto each square of phyllo.
• 12 fold opposite corners to each other to create a kind of closed bag.
• 13 place folded bundles onto a tray or flat plate and place into freezer.
• 14 repeat 8 through 13 until all sheets and mixture is used. ( you can freeze mixture for future use if you end up with extra). be sure to put the berry mixture back into the freezer between bundles.
• 15 store bundles in freezer until ready to bake.
• 16 preheat oven to 375 fahrenheit.
• 17 remove frozen bundles from freezer and place onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet. place tray in oven and bake for 15 minutes (or until golden brown).
• 18 place bundles onto serving plates. drizzle honey over each bundle and serve.
