Baked Swedish Farmer Cheese in Phyllo
Farmers Cheese is a staple in Swedish homes. It's so creamy, versatile and delicious, they put it on everything. We baked it in crispy phyllo and drizzled with honey. It makes a perfect snack.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces imported Swedish farmer cheese
- 2 sheets phyllo dough thawed
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 teaspoons tuxedo sesame seeds
- Honey for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut cheese
- into 2 4-inch-wide squares, about 1-inch thick. Place phyllo sheet on clean work surface,
- with short side facing you. Brush phyllo with butter. Place 1 slice cheese on the bottom 1/3
- of phyllo sheet. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Fold
- phyllo sheet over cheese, folding away from you, tucking in sides as you fold. Repeat with
- remaining phyllo sheets, thyme and cheese.
- Brush phyllo wrapped cheese with melted butter and place on rimmed baking sheet.
- Sprinkle evenly with sesame seeds. Bake, flipping cheese halfway through, until
