How to Make Golden Baked Feta Rolls with Sweet Cranberry Honey

Ingredients:

200 g feta cheese, cut into sticks
10–12 spring roll wrappers (or phyllo sheets, halved)
2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
Fresh thyme or oregano (optional)
1/4 cup dried cranberries, finely chopped
3 tbsp honey
1 tbsp warm water or orange juice
Optional: pinch cinnamon or orange zest

Directions:

Prep the cranberry honey: Warm honey gently using a microwave or on the stovetop. Stir in the chopped cranberries, warm water or orange juice, and any optional zest or cinnamon you’d like to add. Set this aside to infuse the flavors.
Assemble the rolls: Take a spring roll wrapper and place a feta stick near the bottom. If you’re using fresh herbs, sprinkle them over the feta. Roll the wrapper tightly, folding in the sides like you would with a burrito. Brush the top lightly with olive oil or melted butter.
Bake until golden: Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Arrange the rolls seam-side down on a lined baking tray. Bake for 15–18 minutes, turning them once, until they are golden brown and crispy. If you prefer an air fryer, set it to 180°C (350°F) and cook for about 10–12 minutes.
Serve: Drizzle the warm cranberry honey over the rolls or serve it on the side for dipping.

How to Serve Golden Baked Feta Rolls with Sweet Cranberry Honey

These rolls are best enjoyed warm, right out of the oven. Serve them as a delightful appetizer at parties, or pair them with a salad for a light lunch. They can also work well as a tasty addition to a cheese platter. The sweet cranberry honey complements the salty feta beautifully, making each bite a flavor explosion!

How to Store Golden Baked Feta Rolls with Sweet Cranberry Honey

If you have any leftover rolls, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place them in an oven at 180°C (350°F) for a few minutes until they are warmed through and crispy again. Avoid microwaving them as it can make the texture soggy.

Tips to Make Golden Baked Feta Rolls with Sweet Cranberry Honey

Make sure to use fresh, high-quality feta cheese for the best flavor.
If you prefer a less sweet sauce, adjust the amount of honey or add more herbs to balance the flavors.
Get creative with the fillings! You can add spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or different cheeses for variety.

Variation

For a different twist, try using goat cheese instead of feta. This change will give a creamier texture and a tangy flavor that pairs well with the cranberry honey.

FAQs

1. Can I make these rolls ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the rolls ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator before baking. Just bake them right before you plan to serve.

2. Can I use a different type of cheese?
Absolutely! While feta is perfect for this recipe, you can use other cheeses like goat cheese or even mozzarella for a different flavor.

3. How can I make this recipe vegan?
To create a vegan version, replace feta cheese with vegan cheese and use a vegan butter alternative. Additionally, make sure the spring roll wrappers are vegan-friendly.
