Description

This honey pistachio phyllo rolls dessert is everything I love about working with phyllo dough. It’s crisp, golden, and layered with buttery sheets that shatter gently when you bite into them. Inside, there’s a fragrant filling of finely chopped pistachios, lightly spiced and sweetened with honey. What makes this recipe special is how elegant it feels with such simple ingredients. It’s the kind of dessert that looks impressive on the table but doesn’t require advanced baking skills. Perfect for casual gatherings, family dinners, or quiet evenings when you want something sweet without going overboard, these phyllo rolls strike that balance between light and indulgent. Serve them warm with coffee or tea, and you’ll understand why this recipe becomes a repeat favorite.


Ingredients

  • Phyllo dough sheets, thawed
  • Unsalted butter, melted
  • Pistachios, finely chopped
  • Honey
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Salt


Instructions

  • Preheat the oven and prepare a baking tray.
  • Layer phyllo sheets with melted butter between each layer.
  • Mix pistachios with honey, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Add filling along the edge and roll into logs.
  • Brush with butter and bake until golden.
  • Drizzle with warm honey before serving.

Notes

  • Use good-quality honey for the best flavor. Warm the honey before drizzling so it absorbs into the layers. Don’t overfill the rolls, and always keep unused phyllo covered while working.
