Recipe Notes
Crispier Option: If using phyllo dough, keep the layers thin and brush lightly with oil to avoid sogginess.
Vegan Alternative: Use dairy-free feta and maple syrup instead of honey.
Extra Mediterranean Flair: Add roasted red peppers or artichoke hearts.
Storage & Reheating:
Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.
